Parent coaches are an essential part of EGSA!

Coaching for EGSA is a rewarding volunteer experience and it does not take much of your time. As a coach, you are a role model for your team's players and will help shape their love of the sport of soccer and of youth sports in general!


Parent coach information per division:

             

Here are key characteristics that we look for in our coaches:


If you are interested in coaching*, you must register as a coach. Log into our registration system where you signed your kids up and select yourself as coach. The links can be found on our Register page.


The federal government, EGSA, and SoccerRI require a background check, concussion training, and SafeSport certification before you can participate in practices or games with the players. These certifications are online and links can be found in your profile after you register as a coach. You can save your training and come back to it later if you can't get it done at once.


*Travel League coaches are selected by the EGSA Board.

If you are already a recreational or competitive coach, Thank you! for your time and dedication to EGSA's players!  Be sure to check out the links below to some excellent resources for players and teams of all ages and abilities.
