SSA Coastal Recreational Soccer Coaching
SSA Coastal understands the importance of the Recreational program in fostering young players’ physical, mental, and social growth so they can reach their full potential. By creating a fun and knowledgeable coaching environment, the Recreational players, parents, and coaches can learn, develop, and enjoy the game of soccer regardless of individual ability.
SSA Coastal Recreational Coaching Staff consists of volunteer parent coaches who possess a varying level of soccer knowledge and experience. That is why SSA is not only committed to developing the player, but the volunteer coach as well. SSA is there to support all of the coaches every step of the way, by providing a fun and knowledgeable coaching environment to help coaches learn the game and develop their skills, in order to deliver fun and age-appropriate training to all of the players.
Coaching Support
To assist you as a volunteer coach, SSA Coastal has a Director who will be there to support you, and other parent coaches, every step of the way.
A structured age-appropriate curriculum and other materials will be available to save you time, and help make your coaching role easier and more effective.
The club will provide support and guidance through the use of several media, including videos, sample session plans, and activities, to ensure that you, as a volunteer coach, feel comfortable and confident in providing developmentally appropriate practice sessions.
The club will stay in constant communication with you and will be accessible to answer any soccer related questions you may have over the course of the season.
Additionally, we encourage parents and all of our volunteer coaches to take the Georgia Soccer coaching courses. For additional information, and to sign up for a course, please click here.
