Why is coaching education important?
Coaches who have participated in state level, national level and
international coaching education courses have learned that, to
coach effectively and develop players, it is important to
understand the four components of coaching soccer. As well as
have the ability to instruct youth players to incorporate all four
components into the game- this total player development.

(BSA) to host coaching education at the YMCA

coaching program that is based on teachings of three organizations
(a) USSF, (b) NSCAA, & (c) UEFA. This coaching program will be
available through Club Based training courses
• We also plan to host and coordinate state (OYSAN), national (USSF
& NSCAA) and affiliate club level coursework in our area
• The EOYSCC & BSA will assist coaches in the area by:
1. Providing minimum participation numbers required for hosting a course
2. Tracking training records and alert coaches for re-certification
3. Reduce cost for training courses through collaboration with area clubs and sharing
resources
4. And ensure that the training sessions satisfy the demands of player pool in our area
(i.e., a need of more technical development courses rather than advance national courses at this
particular time)

BSA Coaching Education Program
Supplemental Training Courses
Positive Coaching Alliance (PCA)
http://www.positivecoach.org/
PCA have three national goals:
• Replace the "win-at-all-cost" model of coaching with the Double-Goal
Coach®, who wants to win but has a second, more important, goal of using
sports to teach life lessons;
• Teach youth sports organization leaders how to create an organizational
culture in which Honoring the Game is the norm; and
• Spark and fuel a "social epidemic" of Positive Coaching that will sweep this
country. Face-to-face group workshops, dynamic PCA Trainers
How?
• Train youth and high school sports coaches to become Double-Goal
Coaches®, whose first goal is winning, and whose second, more-important
goal is teaching life lessons through sports;
• Develop Second-Goal Parents, who focus on helping their youth athletes
learn those life lessons;
• Cultivate Triple-Impact Competitors, student athletes who strive to improve
themselves, their teammates and their sport as a whole.
