The New York State West Youth Soccer Association is very pleased to announce that we will be hosting a National Youth License (NYL) course, our first in several years.
The NYL is a national licensing course and is available to anyone who is at least 18 years of age and possesses a current USSF D License. This 5 day course is designed to provide club DOC’s, youth coaches, physical education teachers, and soccer administrators with the knowledge to successfully structure soccer environments for children between the ages of 4 and 12. The course is often regarded as the most beneficial and important of the national-level courses.
This course will begin with a Friday evening lecture and end with practical testing. Three full days of theoretical (classroom) and practical (field) information and demonstration fill out the remainder of the schedule. Both age appropriate players and candidates will participate in the practical portion of the course.
This course will be held indoors, so weather will not be an issue! The playing surface is a spacious 40yd x 70yd field turf surface.
Dates: May 11-13, & May 19-20. Non-residental. Candidates to arrange accommodations.
