Coaching Credentials
Requirements:
- 3 requirements of ENYYSA for every coach and manager (background check, Heads Up and Safe Sport)
- 3 coach credentialing requirements (orientation, PCA and grassroots licensing)
CHECKING THE STATUS OF YOUR CREDENTIALS
SIGNING UP FOR COACH CREDENTIALING COURSES
- Log into GotSport and go to your “Dashboard” (upper left corner). There you will see the status of your requirements for the upcoming/current season.
- If you click into the Details link next to the background check, Heads Up and Safe Sport, you can then click through the prompts to complete those items. The background check costs $8 and you can pay by credit card, as it is a team expense.
SIGNING UP FOR COACH CREDENTIALING COURSES
- The 3 coach credentialing requirements require both online and in-person courses. They are summarized in the below table, which will link you to the registrations for these courses for the 2025-26 season.
- You will be charged for the grassroots licensing course; as with the background check, it is a team expense.
- Coaches must complete these by the first game so that they are approved to appear as a coach on the match card.
