The U6, U8, and U10 coaching courses
are strongly recommended for all coaches
at the younger levels.
-

a beneficial soccer environment.

that are developmentally appropriate.
-

For more information regarding these and other advanced clinics,
see the
state
or
national
websites.
-
E Certificate Course (18 hours)
The emphasis of the E course
is on coaching players 10-14 years of age.
It is a general certificate of 11-a-side play
and is intended for those coaches
who are in the transitional stage
from coaching modified soccer
to coaching 11v11 soccer.
The course is best suited for those coaches
with several years of experience
or who have attended one or more of the
youth module courses.
The E course focuses on coaching points
and the teaching of technique,
with an introduction to the Principles of Play
(attack and defense).
The E course also provides elementary information
on the management and preparation of a team.
The E course requires one weekend:
Friday night and all day Saturday and Sunday.
-
D License Course (36 hours)
Note:
You must have passed the E class
in order to attend the D class,
unless you meet certain criteria and apply for an
E license waiver
from WSYSA.
The attendees of a D course
fall into two distinct categories:
coaches who are using the course to prepare
for the National C License
and those who are using the course to qualify
for a particular level of coaching.
Many of the latter are not required
to further upgrade their license.
In addressing coaches in these two categories,
the D course can be seen as either preparatory or terminal.
The D course is for coaching players 14-18 years of age
and emphasizes observing mistakes
and providing information to correct the mistakes.
A majority of the course schedule is devoted to
practice coaching and practical examinations.
Candidates are examined
by the analysis of video footage
for their knowledge and understanding
of tactics and methodology.
There are also take-home examinations on
soccer injury prevention and the FIFA Laws of the Game.
Based on how well they do in the D License course,
candidates are awarded either a National D License,
which allows them to attend a National C License course
after a year,
or a State D License.
If a State D License is earned,
the D License course can be retaken
by coaches interested in obtaining a National C License.
The D course requires two consecutive weekends:
Friday night and all day Saturday and Sunday.
Other Courses
Coaching courses are also available from the
National Soccer Coaches Association of America.
