NSCAA is developing a pool of resources that bring top-flight coaching education experiences to the Internet. These either are original programs developed by NSCAA, such as the NSCAA Online Academy, or are available through partnerships with such organizations as the National Federation of High School Associations or the National Center for Sports Safety. We hope you will take advantage of these programs.

Soccer Parents Courses Offered through NSCAA

The NSCAA has combined with Sports Path to offer an online learning course for soccer parents.

In autumn 2007, Sports Path launched the Soccer Parent E-Learning Courses, which were created for the parents of boys and girls 4-16 years of age. Its goal is to help parents learn how they can contribute to the development of their young soccer players. Parents play a vitally important role in encouraging their children to take up and continue to participate in youth soccer. This e-learning program offers an ideal solution for time-challenged parents by offering units and modules that can be enjoyed in 10-minute chunks at home, in the office or on the go.

The courses are an experience for active learners – instead of lectures, a series of problems are posed that are solved by the parent. Learn more about the four courses.
