Soccer
Have played soccer from about the age of 8 to today. Coached my first team (U8) at the age of 14 (Jackson, MI). Currently hold the following licenses:
"E" License
 The "E" License curriculum focuses on the development of the player, both individually and as part of the team. The emphasis is to build on the player’s technical development by applying tactical concepts within a team environment.
Objectives:
- To prepare coaches working with players U-12 and older by expanding their knowledge and understanding of the technical and tactical demands of the game and the development process necessary for players these ages.
- To provide an understanding of practical coaching methodology and the framework necessary to prepare players and a team for competition.
- To prepare coaches for whom this represents their final coaching course, as well as, those who plan to continue to further their coaching education.
"F" Certificate
The mission of the National Youth License and the State Youth Modules (F Certificate Modules) is to provide the most current and advanced information on growth and development of the youth soccer player. The youth soccer player is defined as any child from pre-school through adolescence. The course takes the approach that the GAME WITHIN EACH CHILD is at the center of all belief, decisions, and actions taken by the child, coach, and organization. It is the ultimate goal of youth soccer development within the to unlock the game within the child to reach their full soccer potential.
