The Massachusetts Youth Soccer
Association (MYSA) is leading the way in player and coach development by becoming the
first state association in the country to employ five full time head coaches that are
dedicated to improving the skills of its players and the education of its coaches. Their
new program starts with the cooperation and commitment of the individual soccer leagues in
the state and SSYSL understands that in order to increase the soccer skills of its
players, it needs to first increase the education and soccer knowledge of its
coaches.
MYSA offers the following Soccer
Coaching Courses: G, F, E and D and the US Soccer Association offers Courses
C, B & A. For more information on these courses, visit the MYSA website at
www.mayouthsoccer.com and www.ussoccer.com respectively.
The Board of Directors is pleased to
announce the new reimbursement policy for current league coaches with regards to these
coaching courses.
SSYSL will now pay for 100% of the
G level course and 50% of the cost for the other six levels.
If you want to take a coaches education
course, simply sign-up, pay the appropriate fee and once you attend & pass the course,
you submit the cost of the course along with a copy of your certificate to the Coach
Education Director and you will be reimbursed accordingly by the league. |
