  To volunteer to become a soccer coach for Glen Rose Soccer Association, you will have to follow these steps BEFORE we establish the teams for the season.

 All coaches need to complete 24/25 Registration, Safesport Certification and Background check through Gotsport. 

PLEASE NOTE: ALL COACHES MUST BE APPROVED BY THE DIRECTOR OF COACHING. SIGNING UP TO COACH DOES NOT GUARANTEE YOU WILL GET A TEAM.

STEP 1 - SIGN UP

Sign up to coach for the season.   You must have a Gotsport account.  If you don't have an account, sign up for one.

STEP 2 - RISK MANAGEMENT

Undergo a Risk Management check.  All volunteers that will instruct our players (managers and coaches) must have a background check.

IF YOU HAVE NOT SUBMITTED A BACKGROUND CHECK AFTER JUNE 1, 2024 YOU NEED A NEW ONE

In order to do a background check, log into your Gotsport account at https://www.gotsport.com/asp/coaches/

Go to your dashboard and follow the instructions to submit a background check. It will take a few hours or a few weeks for the report to come back with a result.  If you are approved, we can then put you in the coaching pool for a team.  If you are not approved, we cannot have you as a volunteer.  We are not made aware of why you weren't approved, just that you are not approved by the North Texas State Soccer Association.

STEP 3 - SAFE SPORT

Safe Sport is mandatory by law for all coaches, assistant coaches, managers, and any volunteer with kids. If you have coached before and done the initial Safe Sport then you must complete a refresher course every year. Log into your Gotsport account at https://www.gotsport.com/asp/coaches/

STEP 4 - COACHES AND MANAGERS MEETING

The coaches and managers meeting is scheduled each season for all age groups. Please watch the website and your email for more information about the exact times and location. This meeting is MANDATORY for all coaches and assistant coaches.  If you cannot make this meeting, you must contact the Director of Coaches for an alternative plan. We cannot stress enough how important this meeting is for all coaches to attend.

Make sure all of your paperwork and other requirements have been completed prior to attending this meeting.
