Online registration is now open for the 2013 National Soccer Coaches Association of America Convention in Indianapolis, Ind., on January 16-20.

At the NSCAA Convention homepage, registrants can find links to convention housing and receive the best rates at hotels within the closest proximity to the Indianapolis Convention Center. Furthermore, these housing options all connect via skyway, eliminating outdoor foot travel to and from the convention center.

“We are excited to have our 2013 Convention in Indianapolis,” said NSCAA CEO, Joe Cummings. “We are looking forward to providing a high level of education and a well-rounded experience for the thousands of coaches that will come to the event.”

The NSCAA Convention, dubbed “The World’s Largest Annual Gathering of Soccer Coaches and Administrators,” draws approximately 4,000 coaches and 10,000 total attendees each year. The event includes 36 field sessions from coaches from the highest level, 40 lecture sessions, multiple banquets to honor both All-Americas and NSCAA coaches, the largest soccer-specific trade show in the world, plus numerous networking opportunities and more.

The theme of the 2013 NSCAA Convention is “Innovate to Elevate”. Educational sessions at the Convention will focus on pioneering and new techniques, training plans and more meant to help coaches take their teams and their career to the next level.

Attendees will have the opportunity to receive the NSCAA Goalkeeping Level I Diploma, Professional Development Certificate and USSF A License CEUs. The Convention will also feature the introduction of Education Experience Tracks, where coaches can have a custom-made schedule tailored to their educational needs based on the age group they coach.

The 2013 edition of the NSCAA Convention will be the first to combine with US Youth Soccer, the largest youth soccer organization in the United States, and bring the US Youth Soccer Workshop to the NSCAA Convention.

In working with US Youth Soccer, the Convention will now feature enhanced youth coaching sessions, and the administrative and referee education sessions that have been a hallmark of the US Youth Soccer Workshop in the past.
