Coaches

Coaching children is a very rewarding experience and coaching your own child's team can be one of the most rewarding experiences of all! Coaches are pivotal to having children get the AYSO experience. If Regions don't have enough coaches, registration is scaled back and kids who want to play in AYSO are turned away.

Do you have little or no experience with soccer? No problem! We will teach you, based on the age level you are coaching. Unique age-appropriate coach training is one of AYSO's specialties. If you plan to be at your child's soccer practices and games, you'll also have time to be your child's coach.

To become an AYSO coach, you must be certified in the age level you are coaching. Certification takes three easy steps. First, fill out a volunteer form. Then either attend a short Safe Haven™ course in person or online. Lastly, you must attend a brief age-specific coaching course. It's only a few hours. We also have brand new Coaching Manuals that help you with training plans and activities for the age you are coaching.

Coaches are essential to the game. They teach children soccer skills and help develop a healthy, positive attitude, teamwork and good sportsmanship. Coaching is a rewarding experience because you have the opportunity to build a child's self-esteem, help them learn new skills and just have a lot of fun.

We Need Volunteer Coaches!

Coaches are at the heart of the AYSO organization, because as a coach you have the most contact with the kids. Coaching requires that you commit to one evening per week for practice sessions, plus the game on Saturday. With the time that you should be spending preparing for practices and games, this is a significant commitment of time. We appreciate the time that you have committed, and hope to provide you with advice and assistance to make your coaching experience a positive one.

Why Should I Coach?

  • It’s FUN.
  • It’s a great break from work.
  • It makes you feel good.
  • It’s a great way to give something back to the community.

The rewards come in the form of watching the kids have fun at a game or practice, watching their individual skills and teamwork improve, and there is also a great sense of accomplishment when you reach the end of a season and look back and see how far the team has come.

And for those who have “serious” jobs, there is no better way to regain your perspective than to watch a bunch of 7 year olds at practice.

We provide training, equipment, and all the camaraderie you can stand. We have both men and women all taking part in the fun.  We’d love to have you join us!
