Coaches Training
SBFC is committed to offering its coaches the latest in coaching ideas. There are 4 training sessions per season which ALL coaches (U8Dev. and up) are expected to attend. The club's DOC, club trainers, or guest trainers will host the sessions. They will usually take place on Wednesday nights on a monthly basis. Furthermore, the club desires to have as many coaches as possible licensed, especially at the competitive level. In this endeavor it sponsors several of the FYSA classes outlined below.
Florida Youth Soccer Association (FYSA) offers the following courses:


Player-Parent Clinic: 2 hour clinic will include player clinic with parent and coach education module to provide information on issues dealing with the various age groups.

6/8, 8/10 and 10/12 Modules: Age specific training with appropriate activities for youth players. Each of the three modules is six hours.

F certificate: 8 hour course is the introductory course to 11-a-side soccer of players 12 years old and up. This course also serves a preparatory course and prerequisite for the E license course.

E certificate: This course will be a prerequisite for the D license. The course deals with 11-a-side soccer for coaches of players that are 13 years old and up. This course is 18 hours.

D license: The D license is the highest state license course for coaches of players 13 and up. The D course includes written, oral and practical coaching exams on the field. The D course takes 36 hours.  The E certificate is required to attend the D course.  There is no waiver to the D course.
Coaches should attend the course that is most appropriate for the players they are coaching. Modules are recommended for anyone coaching U6s, U8s' U10s and U12s. If you are coaching older players the starting point is the F course. The E course is mandatory prior to taking the D course.
