Welcome to the "Coaches Corner", dedicated to provide SnVYSA Recreational coaches the training, tools, tips and information that will help you to coach.
SnVYSA will assist you in getting the necessary training to reach your goals. We have some great incentives for volunteers who elect to Coach. The SnVYSA Board feels we have some of the best coaches in the state, and we want to be able to provide incentives and recognition to continue to keep our coaches committed and engaged year to year.
There is a lot of information to digest as a coach and SnVYSA wants to provide coaches with the best coaching experience; whether you are a new coach or a returning coach this season. Outlined below is a list of steps to get you started.
Complete the steps below in "red" to get started!
SnVYSA values its volunteers and understands that volunteers are the heart of our association and we could not provide a fun filled and successful season without them! Because of this, and the time and dedication volunteer coaches provide, SnVYSA offers the following coach incentives:
1. Coach training and development.
SnVYSA provides coach training at the beginning of every recreational season, license certification opportunities by age group, and access to an online coach manual for player drills and curriculum.
2. Coach "of the year" awards.
Every October, SnVYSA recognizes and celebrates amazing coaches, volunteers and referees by polling the families of the teams to nominate a coach, referee, and volunteer they feel has demonstrated exceptional leadership and commitment during the season. The SnVYSA Board reviews the nominations and selects an "Of the Year Award" for both a Male and Female category for Coach and Referee of the Year, and a single Volunteer of the year award.
3. Discounted player registration fees.
SnVYSA volunteer coaches are eligible for a 50% discount off their players registration fees if they complete all the compliance requirements and 100% discount if they also complete the license certification for the age group they are coaching. The discount is processed as a refund in September of each year.
Thank you for volunteering to coach! Coaching youth soccer is a fun and enjoyable experience.
