Spring Coaching License/Certification Courses Set

The FCYSL Board has set the tentative date for Coaching License/Certification Courses as February 13, 2010. This will include the Youth Module I, Youth Module II and State "E" License.

 Requirements for proper certification/licensing are expected to increase in the near future, and it is highly suggested that coaches attend age appropriate clinics and begin the certification/licensing process as early as possible.

Coaches working with children ages U-5 through U-7 should attend the Youth Module I, and coaches working with children ages U-8 through U-10 should attend the Youth Module II. The State "E" License is a minumum required license for all coaches who plan to take teams to tournaments, regardless of the age division. Coaches wishing to progress beyond their "E" should contact Kelly Kelso, FCYSL Director of Coaches to express their interest. 

Pre-enrollment for any of these classes is required, and enrollment should be completed by January 30, 2010. Enrollment is done at the NMYSA website, under the coaches information area of the site. A link is provided on this site under "Useful Links", on the left side of the page. A minimum number of registrations is required to attend the clinics, and if the minimum is not reached the course will be canceled.
