Hi All 6U-15U Families,
We have a few items to review for the meetings this week.

The other is the slip we will be collecting from teams that have everything ready. We will have them printed off and need the team to return it filled out. You can return the completed slip at any team meeting or any uniform pickup(TBD).

Team Meeting Return Slip: https://corvallisayso.org/docs/TeamMeetingSlip.pdf

Thank You,

(Corvallis AYSO) Let's get you signed up, Coach!
8/09/22 11:56 PM

Hello Corvallis AYSO Families!

Coach Administrator Dan Herford here. Along with Abe Drabkin, our Director of Coach Training, I encourage you to consider joining our Corvallis AYSO coaching team.

*** Jump to the bottom to get THE DETAILS on how to get going on coaching ***

Our dedicated, enthusiastic, talented, and surprisingly witty coach administration and training team is here to help our volunteer coaches successfully deliver a high-quality soccer program to our AYSO kids.

Perhaps you, or someone you know - it could be a relative, or friend, or older sibling - is ready to jump onto the pitch to help your son or daughter have a fun experience learning and growing in the context of soccer.

We're looking for people who enjoy the game and enjoy helping kids reach their potential. Soccer experience is great, but not required. More important is a desire to learn and grow yourself, and a desire to help kids do the same.

We'll provide training to equip you for the age level you are coaching, and when you become a coach with Corvallis AYSO, you will find yourself on a team with other coaches who are here to help all of the kids in the program be successful and have a good experience.

I'll be real - it takes a fair amount of time and dedication to do the job. But, the reward is seeing the kids develop and grow, with a fun benefit of hearing 'Hey Coach!' when you run into a former player at the grocery store.

Right now the push is to get coaches trained. Go to https://www.corvallisayso.org/coaches/training.html for information on the training requirements for each division.

Much of the training is online - you'll want to get that started right away. There is also local training - classroom training for 11U and above, and field training for all divisions. The local training is happening later this month. You'll want to get signed up as soon as possible at https://www.corvallisayso.org/coaches/training.html

Look over the info on the website, and then email us with any questions. We'll also try to have someone from the coach team available at the team meetings happening this week to answer questions.

See you on the pitch!

Dan Herford
Coach Administrator

*** THE DETAILS ***

Coaches need to be/have:
1) Registered Volunteers (need to re-register every year)
2) Annual Concussion Training
3) AYSO Safe Haven Certification
4) SafeSport Training
5) Online Coach Training for your Division
6) In-person Classroom and/or Field Training for you Division

All of the links and detailed walk-throughs are found at https://www.corvallisayso.org/coaches/training.html

(Yes, it's a lot, but it gets easier after you get through it the first time.)

Questions, concerns, problems? Please shoot us an email at This email address is being protected from spambots. You need JavaScript enabled to view it..

Thanks,
Dan

If you have not registered already for fall soccer, you can register players online (here) in Sports Connect. If you no longer want emails about AYSO Corvallis / Benton County soccer, you can unsubscribe by clicking the link at the end of this email.

Finishing the registration now means you will be part of our main team formation process starting this week. After today we move to limited registration, having some divisions go to wait list registration. If we can take additional registrations, you will be activated from the wait list, likely in early August.

Per Player Scholarship?
You register/apply the same as everyone else, when asked about eligibility for a scholarship during registration, check yes if you are eligible. You should see a question... "My family and this player is approved for free and reduced meals, SNAP, or TANF. My family can provide proof when requested and authorize AYSO to verify my approval/enrollment. If I cannot provide proof when requested, I understand I will be charged the full player registration fee." after checking yes, your fee would be reduced and you can finish the application online.
