Area 3/T Super Camps general info:
1. To minimize course check-in delays, it is extremely important to get all volunteers signed up in advance in eAYSO so we can insure we have enough space and course supplies for them. Your volunteers should sign up now for the courses in eAYSO.org using MyeAYSO Course Signup and the course roster numbers above after completing and submitting their eAYSO Profile and Volunteer Application if they have not already done so. Otherwise, you must sign them up using eAYSO Lookup -> Course -> Course Signup. If a volunteer does not have an eAYSO application or registered record, use the "Add new volunteer" button to get them on the roster.
2. Please make sure your coaches understand that to earn credit for a course, they must plan to arrive 30 minutes early to find parking, check-in for their course, get to the classroom on time, attend the entire course and pass a test with at least 70% correct answers at the end of each course. No exceptions. Those arriving late and/or leaving early are welcome to stay, participate and get whatever they can from a course for time they do attend, but not course credit.
3. Safe Haven Coach or the new "AYSO's Safe Haven" course and age appropriate coach training courses for the coming Fall season are required by AYSO for all coaches (head coaches and assistant coaches). "AYSO's Safe Haven" which has been completely revised to address current topics such as bullying, concussions and more is recommended as an update for all coaches who attended the old Safe Haven Coach course.
4. Age appropriate coach training for U6, U8 and U10 coaches is mandated by the AYSO National Board of Directors. U12 Coach training is mandated for the Fall 2013 season.
5. Courses except AYSO's Safe Haven and Coach Administrator Training include gym work. Coaches and their team player(s) should bring an appropriate size soccer ball (#5 for coaches), shin guards, dry gym shoes with clean soles, paper, pencils and smiles.
6. Saturday and Sunday lunches are provided only for coaches, players and/or instructors staying for both morning and afternoon courses.
7. Please see this page for updates and any revisions.
