NSCAA State Diploma Course
For the first time ever, local coaches will have the opportunity to participate in the National Soccer Coaching Association of America (NSCAA) on Saturday, May 10, at the Bermuda College gymnasium. The coaching course will be conducted by Bermuda Football Association Technical Director, Derek Broadley from 10am - 4pm. The NSCAA State Diploma is a five-hour course, designed to help coaches working with players in the 5 to 10 year age range. Special emphasis is placed on understanding the physiological and psychological differences of coaching children. The emphasis is that the game itself is the teacher and the focus of the coach at this level clearly is as facilitator.
The curriculum focuses on the organization of a practice session, using small-sided games to enhance knowledge and fun, basic understanding of the Laws of the Game and information about the care and prevention of injuries. There is no testing in the State Diploma. All candidates must be at least 14 years of age at the time of application. If a candidate is under 18 years of age, an adult must accompany him or her for the duration of the course. The course is open to all coaches on the Island who work with children, and should they take the opportunity, it’s FREE!!!
The course outline is:
· Candidates should arrive by 9:45am to fill out forms.
· Course will start at 10:00am with a theory session.
· Lunch will be from 12:30pm – 1:00pm
