Overview
  The National Youth Sports Coaches Association (NYSCA) is a membership organization and the most widely used volunteer coach training program in the nation, having trained more than 2 million coaches since its inception in 1981. More than 3,000 community-based agencies and organizations offer this opportunity.

The NYSCA volunteer coach training program is designed to sensitize volunteer coaches to their responsibilities and hold them accountable to a strict Code of Conduct defined by the NYSCA Coaches' Code of Ethics Pledge.



How it works

Initial Level Membership
There are two ways to become an Initial Level Member of the NYSCA:
1. Coaches can participate in an on-site, interactive video training clinic (conducted by a local Chapter of the NYSCA), successfully complete an exam and sign a pledge committing them to uphold the NYSCA Code of Ethics. The membership is valid for one year, and the fee is $20.
2. Coaches may also register for the NYSCA Online Clinics. The Online Clinic for Initial Level Members consists of the Introduction to Coaching Youth Sports section and one sport specific section. PLEASE NOTE: The sport specific clinics are being added on an ongoing basis, and all sports will be available online by the end of 2006. Please visit the NYSCA Online Clinics for a list of currently available sports. Coaches must successfully complete an online exam and accept the NYSCA Code of Ethics Pledge. The membership is valid for one year, and the fee for the Online Clinics is $25. Click here to register or to find out more about the NYSCA Online Clinics.

Continuing Membership Program:
Prior to the expiration date of their Initial Level Membership, coaches will receive a renewal notice. To continue membership, coaches must re-sign the Coaches Code of Ethics Pledge and remit the annual $20 membership fee. Renewal entitles the member to the benefits of our Continuing Membership Program.
