Coaching

Coaching is a great way to have a positive impact on your community and the soccer program. SWEMSA has implemented coach requirements for all coaches, ensuring we meet the needs of the kids as well as our parent organizations. To support and equip our coaches, SWEMSA will reimburse all registered coaches for the courses they take.
