Education Opportunities
Adult
Coaching License
The
purpose and philosophy of the Adult Coaching
License is to elevate the level of coaching
education within the USASA membership, train
amateur coaches/team administrators in current
soccer coaching methodology, sports medicine,
team administration, and player preparation for
all levels of Adult Soccer and to prepare
coaches to take other U.S. Soccer Coaching
License Courses.
Prerequisites:
None
Level
I (Day 1). Consists of a classroom only
presentation of coaching methods, team
administration, care and prevention of injuries
and the sprit of the laws. This is a great
course for all those team administrators that
just can’t seem to get organized as well as
any coach dealing with adult players. This
course assists National State Associations in
tailoring the course to help educate their
membership in required administrative functions.
Level
II (Day 2). Combines the classroom and
field training in presenting methods of
coaching, tactics theory, game analysis,
technical training and tactical training. This
portion of the course not only helps the new
coach, or someone just making those
substitutions, but also is recommended for
coaches making the transition from working with
youth to adult players.
Level
III (Day 3). This course presents a
continuation of the methods of coaching, tactics
theory and technical training but also contains
functional training, goalkeeping, practice
coaching and a written final examination. We
recommend any person coaching in the USASA to
complete all three levels. With the successful
completion of all three levels a coach may be
eligible to take the National “C” course
with the recommendation of their instructor.
