How to Become a Volunteer Soccer Coach

    • 1). Go to your local Recreation Center and ask when their soccer seasons are. Some Rec. Centers do just Spring soccer but most do Spring and Fall soccer. Ask them when their soccer seasons start and when the games are. If the schedule works for you they will have a signup sheet for you to fill out. If you have a child and you want to coach their team you will be able to put your child's name down on the same application.

    • 2). The experience needed to coach will depend on what age you want to coach. The three year olds have a hard enough time just kicking the ball down the field without some coaxing from their parents while the eight year olds are old enough to actually try-out for private soccer teams. Coach whichever age matches your soccer knowledge.

    • 3). You do not need to be a licensed coach or any specific coach training to volunteer. You are volunteering your time without pay to help kids learn about and love soccer. If you love kids and soccer and you have some extra time on your hands this is the perfect past time. It's also a good way to bond with your kids while getting exercise.
