Coaching modules are FREE and open to all coaches, parents, and administrators.

You can attend any coaching module regardless of whether or not you are registered with the association hosting the course.

If there is not a course offered nearby call your association's president and get one scheduled.

The modules are free but participants MUST pre-register by emailing the coordinator so that we know how many to expect.
