Play. Inspire. Unite. 

Ontario Soccer is pleased to announce that the Community Coaching Workshops are now available online.

To ensure that the Community Coaching Workshops are more accessible and to allow greater flexibility on when these courses can be delivered, the coaches will be able to work at their own pace to complete the course material.

In addition to the online portion of the course, there will also be one day of in person and on field requirement in the Fall, to conclude the workshop, which each Club or Academy will host.

Coaches will continue to register for their course through Coach Centre.  

Registered coaches will then create a Gmail email address, if they don’t have one already, so they can access Google Classroom to complete the course material. 

The Club or Academy Course Coordinator will send each coach a Google Classroom link with a Class Code which will then give them access to the course material that they can work on at their own pace. 

The assigned Coach Developer (known as a teacher in Google Classroom) to each course will monitor the class and answer any questions within Google Classroom.

The online work has to be completed before the coach can attend the on-field session in the Fall, to complete the course.

The in person and on-field session duration will be as follows:

  • Soccer for Life/Learn to Train – 4 hours on field
  • Fundamentals – 2.5 hours on field
  • Active Start – 1.5 hours on field
