The F and/or E license coach clinics are sponsored by the Santa Cruz City Youth Soccer Club and are conveniently offered right here in Santa Cruz County.

Don't miss this opportunity! These clinics are very practical, and demonstrate fun and effective games and drills for teaching soccer. They are designed for rec and advanced (Class 1, 3 and 4) coaches of all age groups. The clinics are perfect for those new to the game as well as returning coaches. Parents who are thinking about coaching this coming spring are also encouraged to sign up.

Pre-F - This course will help the coach to train young players (U-6, U8, U10) understanding their different stages in their psychological, social and physical development, thereby keeping practices enjoyable and productive.

The F license focuses on teaching individual skills and tactics, while the E license focuses on team tactics (two or more players). The two clinics complement each other, however, you must have taken the F license to take the E license.

E/D - is a review and application of the F and E licenses in preparation for the coach to take the D license.

It is recomended that the coaches take the D license course right after getting their E/D. 

For Pre-F, F and E licenses the coach must apply the information for a season before taking the next license.  This is not required for the E/D license.

These clinics are FREE but space is limited in each clinic so sign up early.  

Please take advantage of this opportunity to build on your soccer coaching skills!
