E License Course to be held in WMYSA

WMYSA is pleased to announce that this fall MSYSA will hold a USSF E License Coaching Class within the WMYSA area.  Thank you to Chris Haack for arranging this course.

This is a great opportunity to get a USSF E Coaching License with minimal travel. WMYSA requires that all WMYSA registered coaches have an E License (this is expected to be completed within one year of coaching in WMYSA). 

The location of this class will be the St. Joe Kickers club in Berrien Springs, MI. The class will be held on Saturday November 12th and Sunday November 13th from 9am to 5 pm each day. The course will be taught by USSF / MSYSA certified instructors. For more information and to register go to MSYSA web site at http://www.michiganyouthsoccer.org/Page553.aspx.

This class is open now so please register quickly to ensure your spot before others in the state get reminders of this class and the class fills up - there are a limited number of seats available. 

♦IMPORTANT♦  The E-license class now has a pre-requisite online coaching module. The certificate from this class is needed for participation in the E License class. This online coaching module is designed to have the majority of the class room instruction in it from the E license class. The E license class now has more time on field instruction and reduced class room lecture time. 

Address of St Joe Kickers location is:

7227 HWY 139

Berrien Springs, MI  49103

WMYSA U8/U7 Academy 1st Season Fall 2009
WMYSA U7/U8 Academy kicks off this Fall with a lot of fun and player developement.
The WMSYA Academy is in full swing this fall.  Five clubs have formed Academy groups. These clubs have one or two player development sessions per week. Each club Academy then can particpate in three WMYSA Academy Jamboreees. These Jamboree's offer the U7/U8 player an opportunity to experience to play 9 matches against other club's Academy teams over only three Sunday afternoons.  The Jamboree's are played at Portage, Rockey Weed and River Oak therefore the Academy teams get a taste of the Select league travel and competition.  At each Jamboree a player plays three matches. 
 
Players and Parents are having a GREAT TIME.

WMYSA Annouces Plans for Fall 2009 U8 Academy

Status for Spring 2009

There was a limited number of member clubs that created Academy teams and/or rostered players using the single Academy registration process.  WMSYA believes that the creation of the next stage – a formal academy pilot program – is not justified based on current participation numbers.  There will be no changes to Academy program within WMYSA for spring 2009.

Formal Academy Launch - Fall 2009

Early Planning

The 2008 timing of the decision by WMYSA to create the academy concept did not allow all clubs time to adequately plan and develop a club strategy to effectively create academy teams for the 2008/2009 season.  By working to create a structure and organization now, WMYSA and its member clubs can create a program that will allow those interested clubs to take advantage of the Academy concept if they so choose.
