Georgia Soccer is pleased to announce that we will be hosting a USSF ‘C’ License coaching course on April 13-21, 2011, at Southern Polytechnic State University in Atlanta, Georgia.
The course tuition is $580, which includes an annual membership to the new U.S. Soccer Coaches Membership Program. Details of this program will be sent to all course participants. This is a “commuter” cost, which means that meals, transportation to course site, and overnight accommodations are not included.
Certification requires attendance on Wednesday evening, April 13th and all day from Thursday April 14th to Thursday April 21st, 2011. Courses can be audited from April 13-19, 2011. Course fee for auditing only is $350 – “commuter” cost.
Course eligibility, you must possess the National ‘D’ License for a minimum of one year to be eligible to attend this class. For all eligibility inquiries, please contact US Soccer Coaching Department (312-528-1231), since the State Association is not authorized to approve waivers.
EXAMINATIONS AND EVALUATIONS
Candidates undergo a challenging series of written, oral and practical examinations on a variety of subjects. Graded on a scale of 1 (high) to 5 (fail), candidates must receive passing scores in all test areas in order to become certified. A single failing score in a theoretical subject qualifies for a re-test in that subject. All theoretical subject re-tests will take place during the course. If a “C” candidate is found deficient in only Playing and Demonstration Ability, he/she may still pass the course. If an applicant misses any of the course sessions, he/she must return to a future school to participate in that session/lecture, even if the candidate has passed all of the testing areas.
Candidates who fail a practical field test will be able to attend a Regional re-test weekend as scheduled by US Soccer in order to qualify for the ‘C’ License.
NOTE: We strongly recommend that you be in “good” physical condition to meet the demands of the course.
