COACHING - RECREATIONAL PROGRAM
Recreational coaches are volunteers who dedicate their time to work with youth players. Their role is to promote the game, teach age-appropriate skills and instill a love of the game. Coaches volunteer each season and often return year after year. Parent coaches are placed as coaches of their own child’s team. Coach education is available as well as the Recreational Director of Coaching who can answer any questions and help with training sessions.
Becoming a coach
If you are interested in coaching a recreational team (aged U5-U19), please contact the office –

Accepted coaches
Florida Youth Soccer requires that all person’s who have direct contact with youth players complete a “Risk disclosure form”. This must be completed and approved before any adult may coach at First Coast Soccer. All signed forms must be complete (all questions answered) and must have an original signature. All new coaches must provide proof of identity (drivers license, etc) along with the form. Forms may be submitted at the seasonal coaches meeting (about 3 weeks before the season starts).
