GSSA COACHING SCHOOL PROGRAM
Under the auspices of the United States Soccer Federation, the Georgia Soccer conducts the State Coaching School Program in order to educate and certify soccer coaches in accordance with the national coaching scheme.
Regardless of previous coaching or playing experience, the Georgia Soccer Coaching School Program is designed to help each coach develop a sound theoretical and practical knowledge of coaching soccer. By offering licensing courses at five different levels, the school is able to expose the beginning as well as the more experienced coach to the internationally recognized modern methods of coaching.
Course fees depend on membership status. Members are defined as Players, Coaches, and parents belonging to Georgia Soccer affiliated clubs, as well as league officers of affiliated clubs.
State ‘G’ Certificate Coaching Course - Course is FREE for Georgia Soccer Members and $50 for Non-Members
Aimed at coaches and parents of U-6 and U-8 players. The course is four hours long and provides fun activities that enhance players’ skill development. Attendance is required to receive the ‘G’ certificate.
State ‘F’ Certificate Coaching Course - Course is FREE for Georgia Soccer Members and $90 for Non-Members
The ‘F’ course is tailored for the coach who is working with U-10 and U-12 Recreational players. The emphasis is on teaching young players through a variety of fun games and practices. The course consists of 7 hours of instruction and practice. Attendance is required to receive the ‘F’ certificate. There is no pre-requisite for this course. However, U-6 & U-8 coaches must start with the ‘G’ course.
National ‘D’ License Coaching Course - Course Fee is $125 for Georgia Soccer Members and $500 Non-members
The ‘D’ course provides a detailed analysis of the modern methods of coaching advanced players of all ages. It involves 32 hours of instruction and testing. Successful completion is based on attendance and passing both a written and a practical coaching test. The ‘E’ certificate is required for attendance (the ‘Rec E’ certificate is not acceptable). ‘E’ certification may be waived for coaches who have College Varsity playing experience or professional playing experience. Request for waivers must be directed to the state office in writing and must be accompanied with documents that prove playing experience. Documents can be in the form of a roster, an article or a letter.
p.s I trust we will once again take advantage of this great opportunity.
