Waldorf SC Institutes Security Initiative
Background Checks to Protect the Club's Children
Starting with the spring 2007 season, all coaches are required to submit to a background investigation. If you volunteer and are selected to coach, the “Gender” Coordinator will let you know how to initiate the investigation.
The Waldorf Soccer Club will do everything within its power to ensure your privacy. The National Center for Safety Initiatives will carry out the entire screening process to ensure all federal laws regarding identity privacy and data storage are followed.
Remember, the purpose of this initiative is to protect our children.
MSYSA Adopts New Coach Licensing Policy
Travel Team Coaches Required to Obtain an “E” Coaching License
The MSYSA Executive Board recently concluded considerations regarding adopting a license requirement for
Maryland coaches. It was the decision of the Executive Board that Head Coaches of MSYSA rostered travel teams should have at least a USSF “E” license or its equivalent, the NSCAA Regional Diploma. The “E” license involves an 18 hour course given over a two day weekend and is the course designed for coaching young players between the ages of 10 – 14, the age range where “travel” teams are typically formed. This policy will be effective September 1, 2007.
