AYSO Coach Training Requirements

AYSO Coach Training Requirements Overview

What do I need to complete to become an AYSO Coach?

1. Submit an ayso112.org Volunteer Coach Application
This must be done each year you wish to coach.

2. Online Background Check through Sterling Volunteers
(Risk Status on your volunteer profile).

After submitting your volunteer application, look for an email from [email protected]. You must follow the link in the email to initiate the background check. This must be done each year.

3. Online Volunteer Safety Courses through AYSOU.
Once you submit a volunteer application (step 1 above), you will see an “AYSOU” button on your volunteer profile that takes you to the "AYSOU" online training portal.

The four online courses are:
▪ Safe Haven
▪ Concussion Awareness
▪ SafeSport Sudden Cardiac Arrest
These must be completed every several years.

4. Live Scan fingerprinting
This is a one-time process for the life of your AYSO account. (Live Scan from other organizations does not satisfy this.) The AYSO Region 112 Child & Volunteer Protection Advocate (CVPA) will provide you with a prepaid code via email upon completion of the background check.

5. Coach Training Certification (Division-specific)
This is a one-time certificate for the life of your AYSO account. Complete a coach certification course for the age level at which you will coach. Some age levels require only online training, while others require both online and in-person training. See the Coach Training Matrix below to understand the specific requirements.  The following link is a step-by-step guide to accessing this coach training online: Accessing AYSO Online Coach Training
   

NOTE: You can take an in-person coach training course through Region 112, or ANY OTHER AYSO Region. View the Accessing AYSO Online Coach Training guide for help on locating the courses you need.
