New Online Youth Module to Accompany Field Session
North Dakota Soccer Association along with the help of US Youth Soccer is proud to announce our new online portion to our youth modules.
This will be really helpful for our recreational programs in the state. In the past, it has been tough to get recreational coaches to attend the 8 hour youth module course. Now they don't have to. All youth modules done by NDSA will run a field session only portion that will take 4 hours. If a coach would like to earn their youth module certificate, they will then be required to take the short online course and test.
We are extremely excited about this and hope you take advantage of this.
Please contact our Technical Director, Shea Durham, at technical@northdakotasoccer.org for any questions.
Upcoming Coaching Courses
Both the E and D courses have been completely overhauled. You will now see that the D course has two scheduled weekends about three months apart. The first weekend is completely mandatory for all applicants. The second weekend is a scheduled examination weekend for applicants that have not been examined. Since we have few coaches to the large geographic area that we have, it would only be prudent of the state staff to have examinations when it best fits the needs of the members if possible. If Minot has quite a few applicants attends a D license in Jamestown for example, we could in turn have an examination in Minot on a weekend it works for the majority of those people.
If you have not had an examination by the July date, July 19-21 will be the scheduled examination weekend so please keep that free if you are planning on taking the course. Anyone missing any part of the D course will not obtain their licensure and must come to the next D scheduled D course in order to obtain their D.
