USSF Courses


Alabama Youth Soccer Association Courses:


    Designed to meet the needs of today’s modern youth soccer coach, Alabama Youth Soccer has established a comprehensive Coaching Education Program that offers a USSF-approved curriculum of courses for the "Youth Module", "E", and "D" licenses. Through this effort, Alabama Youth Soccer provides:

• A program in which coaches can earn state and national coaching credentials
• A system which improves a coach’s knowledge of the game, methodology, and teaching methods
• Valuable information and current coaching trends state-wide, nationally, and internationally

The objective of the coaching licensing curriculum is to provide all soccer coaches, from the beginner to the advanced, with up-to-date theoretical and practical knowledge, so that coaches in Alabama can help ensure that players develop their fullest potential.

All courses are taught by Alabama Youth Soccer State Staff Coaches who hold a National Coaching License. "D" Clinic instructors hold either an "A" or "B" National Coaching License. Youth Module instructors hold a National Youth License. All courses must be scheduled through the Alabama Youth Soccer State Office. A list is maintained at the State Office and posted on our website. The "E" and "D" courses are also offered in Spanish. Individuals wishing to attend a course or clubs, leagues wishing to host a course may do so by contacting Alabama Youth Soccer.

The philosophy of the coaching program is to help you gain the most information from the courses, staff coaches teach the essentials of soccer in an optimal way. All candidates actively participate in field sessions. Approximately two-thirds of each course is comprised field sessions and the remaining one-third as lectures. The intensity of the field sessions is directly related to the level of the course. The higher the course, the more hours required on the field.

 

USSF "D" and "E" Coaching Clinics in Mississippi

The Mississippi Youth Soccer Association is offering several USSF coaching license courses in the next two months.  If you can’t make it to one of the AYSA coaching clinics this is a reasonable alternative.
