What is coaching education?
We owe our players what is best for them in terms of development and experiencing the joys of playing soccer. Eastern Pennsylvania Youth Soccer provides coaching education courses through USSF Learning Center. We want to provide all clubs with qualified instructors for players from U6 and above. Grassroots courses (4v4, 7v7, 9v9, and 11v11) and D and C courses are also provided. This pathway assures parents to have confidence in the coach who is training their children.
US Soccer’s Grassroots coaching model is attaching accountability to the role of a coach much like parents have for teachers. If coaches within a club go through Grassroots Coaching Licenses, parents can be assured their son or daughter is receiving quality training. The courses are appropriate for the novice parent to players who played the game at high levels.
