• EXCEPTION: Coaches of 8U or younger players may remain at Level 1 or their current level.
• A coach may attend only one (1) certification clinic per year (not including age-specific requirements).
• Coaches who do not coach in continuous years must re-enter the program at the next level when they resume coaching responsibilities.

Once Level 3 is achieved, periodic renewal is required for coaches who have not achieved Level 4.

• Coaching certification at Level 3 is valid for two (2) seasons, as indicated by the expiration date. 
• A coach whose Level 3 is due to expire must take the online Level 3 Recertification Track 1 curriculum or they may move up to Level 4.   Level 3 Track 1 Recertification is valid for two (2) seasons. 
• A coach whose Track 1 Level 3 recertification is due to expire must take the online Level 3 Recertification Track 2 curriculum or move up to Level 4. Level 3 Track 2 Recertification is valid for two (2) seasons.
• Coaches whose Track 2 Level 3 Recertification is due to expire must attend a Level 4 clinic prior to the expiration of their Level 3 Recertification.
• Coaches must complete the online recertification program in order to recertify their Level 3 certifications. Attending a clinic or workshop is no longer valid for recertifying any certification level.

Coaches who attain Level 4 certification are not required to attend any further certification clinics 

In addition to the training above, coaches must also complete online age-specific training modules specific to the level of play they are coaching, if they have not already taken that module. Coaches may complete more than one age-specific module in any given season.
