Ladera
Soccer takes pride in creating the best environment and learning experience,
for all the players in our region. By creating
this environment for our players, we require all volunteers that come in
contact with our players, meet certain safety and coaching requirements.
Every Volunteer that will be in contact with our players
MUST complete a Safe Haven “coach” Certification course. This course only needs to be taken once. If
you are going to be a Head Coach, Assistant Coach or a helper at practices you
MUST be Safe Have Coach Certified, before any contact with your team is
performed.
Every Volunteer needs to be “coach” certified for the age
group, in which you will be coaching.
The Head Coach and any Assistant Coaches MUST be coach certified for the
same age, in which you will be coaching.
Below is the table, which shows the certification, needed to coach your
child(ren).

Every Volunteer MUST be registered in the eayso system. Once registered, you will have a volunteer ID
number. This ID number will be with you
throughout your AYSO Volunteer Career.
Each ID Number is associated with the email address you used, when you
registered in the eayso system. This ID will allow you to sign up for the Online coaching classes as well as the In-Person classes

associated with your Volunteer ID Number or Contact EAYSO to retrieve your
login information.

login correctly, but need to change your email address and you want to change
the sign-on email address into eayso, then click on “MyeAYSO” which is located
on the top left of the page, then click on “edit profile”. There you will be able to change your email
address, which is your login ID. The
next time you login to eayso, you will have to use your new email address.

have successfully registered as a Volunteer in the EAYSO system AND you have
been to one of the “in-person” registration days, in which you have signed up
to either Coach or Assistant Coach, you may now logon back into the EAYSO
system. There you will be able to sign

extremely important you do not wait until the last minute to get your
certifications necessary to coach your son or daughter this season. Please logon to: http://ayso11l.org/calendar.htm
for more information on certification dates and requirements.
In order to Coach in Ladera Ranch AYSO all Coaches and Asstistant Coaches need to be certified to the appropriate levels. You will not be allowed to start practicing until these requirements are met. Every year we have a few Coaches that wait until the last minute to get certified. Please make every effert to get the required class and field time in as soon as they are avaiable.
This year we will be starting something new that other regions have been doing for awhile. We will be having a meet the Coaches day on Aug 4th, this will be the day that you will meet your team, collect paperwork and hand out your uniforms. We hope this will help in getting coaches and players placed together in a reasonable time.
Please mark Aug 4th on your calendar and make every effort to attend.
If you have general questions please contact your Program Manager first and me second. If you have specific questions for me feel free to send me an email.
Thank you and see you on the pitch,

Ladera Soccer/UK Soccer Coach Training
In partnership with U.K. International Soccer Camps, we provide free Training Sessions for Coaches. Be sure to check this page or the events section of the website for dates, times & locations for upcoming sessions.
- Two coaches are allowed per team. All coaches must be properly trained and certified for their age group. At game time, a maximum of two coaches are allowed on the field and they must remain in the technical area at all times, unless called on to the field by a Referee.
- Any other parents that assist with practice need to have the coach training as well if they are to interact with children on the field, in order to comply with AYSO National's requirements. Safe Haven is required for each volunteer to comply with insurance requirements. Additionally, the parent must have turned in a volunteer form so that background checks may be performed.
Coach Code of Conduct
AYSO has always encouraged good sportsmanship in its programs. In fact, "Good Sportsmanship" is one of the five philosophies listed in the AYSO National Bylaws. Ladera Soccer / AYSO 1455 believes strongly in good sportsmanship and fair play.
Enthusiastically support and practice the "Everyone Plays," "Good Sportsmanship" and "Positive Coaching" philosophies of AYSO.
Be reasonable in your demands on a young player's time, energy, enthusiasm and performance on the soccer field.
Impress on your players that they must abide by the Laws of the Game at all times.
Develop team respect for the ability of opponents, and for the judgment of referees and opposing coaches.
Ensure that your players' soccer experience is one of fun and enjoyment (winning is only part of it). Players should never be yelled at or ridiculed for making mistakes or losing a game.
Set a good example and be generous with your praise when it is deserved. Children need a coach they can respect.
Keep informed of sound principles of coaching, growth and child development.
Check your equipment and playing facilities. They should meet safety standards and be appropriate for the age and ability of your players.
Follow the advice of a physician when determining when an injured child is ready to play again.
