All tackle football coaches within our organization must complete a Background Check and the USA Youth Tackle Course.
1) We have partnered with Sports Illustrated Play for the screening process and this is done through our online registration program. There is a $22.00 fee for this process. We will get notice that you have completed the process and we will contact you if there are any questions. The background check is valid for 1 (one) full calendar year.
2) All tackle football coaches must be certified with USA Football. Go to USA Football, complete the Youth Tackle course and print the certification of completion. Please turn that certificate in by emailing [email protected].
3) A signed coaches code of conduct form. We will provide that form to head coaches to distribute to his coaching staff once teams are finalized.
Additional training is available at the National Federation of High School's web site http://nfhslearn.com. Suggested training courses are the Heat Illness Prevention and Engaging Effectively with Parents. The courses are free.
