Green Hornets Coach Training: NSCAA Below you will find a current list of NSCAA Non-Residential Coaching Diploma Courses being offered in Maryland in 2008. There will be more courses added -- please check the NSCAA website (www.nscaa.com/nrc-list.php) regularly for an official updated calendar and registration information.
Please note the variety of course offerings this year. Everything from the 2.5 hour Parent Coach Diploma Course to 21-hour Advanced Regional Diploma Courses, plus the entire series of Goalkeeping Diploma Courses is being offered. They will likely be adding the new Youth and Advanced Youth Diploma Courses, and hopefully a High School Coaches Diploma Course. If you need to familiarize yourself with the specifics of each course, refer to the NSCAA website (www.nscaa.com/nrc.php).
It may be important for you to know that MSYSA adopted a policy last year stating that . . .
"head coaches of MSYSA-rostered travel teams should have at least a USSF “E” license or its equivalent, the NSCAA Regional Diploma. All returning travel team head coaches must meet this requirement by the start of the fall 2007 season." Successful completion of any of the eight NSCAA Regional Diploma Courses offered in 2008 will meet the MSYSA minimum standard for travel head coaches.
There is a State Goalkeeping Diploma Course (Level 1, 6 hours) and a Regional Goalkeeping Diploma Course (Level 2, now 12 hours) leading up to the National Goalkeeping Diploma Course on July 11-13, 2008. The goalkeeping courses are a progression, with the State a prerequisite for the Regional, which is a prerequisite for the National. Please note that the three levels will be presented at different locations on different weekends, and you must register for each separately.
