Portage Soccer Club
Coaches Page
(Revised 4-May-2008)
Portage Soccer Club greatly appreciates the gift of your time
& dedication to our youth and the game of soccer. The top priority of PSC
is to offer excellent coaching and training for club members, and you are obviously
the key element to that. While we can't come close to fully compensating you
for your time and energy, we are pleased to offer the following benefits to
facilitate your efforts to provide top notch training to our youth.
- Coaching stipend of $200 per season ($400 per year for U14 and younger).
- If you do not have a child on the team, the team will reimburse travel expenses
for tournaments.
- Paid membership in NSCAA (National Soccer
Coaches Association of America) which includes a coaching magazine and web
resources.
- Use of a practice facility for your
PSC team where you can schedule practices at a time convenient to you and
your team (instead of having to race to a park or school before someone else
gets there), where you can take advantage of special training activities from
PSC's DOTD, and where you will always have a goal to shoot on with plenty
of space.
- Support from PSC's Director of Technical
Development (DOTD) Blake Glass (with experience as WMU Varsity coach,
ODP coach, TKO coach, and 10-yr NSCAA State Director of Coaching).
- Continuing education. PSC will reimburse you for half of the cost of your
E license (WMYSA will pay the other half), and if you choose to continue to
a D license, PSC will reimburse half of that cost.
- Access to the PSC DVD/Video library where
past and present coaches have donated their videos for check-out by current
coaches.
- Association with a Club with a proud history that
prides itself in placing the needs of the player first, has an informative
web site and good communications, and has an
elected board of directors (all volunteers).
The Club is a non-profit organization with a published budget available for
everyone to examine.
Video/DVD Library-
The DVDs and videotapes below are available for checkout for 2-week periods
