Coach Education
The coaching instruction we provide to the players is for the purpose of improving and developing his or her capabilities. Age-appropriate skills training, strength and conditioning activities, and nutrition guidance, are all important aspects of the development process.
Our coaches are highly encouraged to further their understanding of the sport and we offer reimbursement for coach's educational fees.
Coach Licensing
As a club, MFSC strives to provide the best and most appropriate training sessions and game day experience for our youth athletes. We will support our coaches in their efforts to attain coach licensing and we highly encourage all of our coaches to do so.
