The Game Leader program creates opportunities for parents to get involved with their child’s sport, and has been designed by Ontario Soccer Grassroots, Referee and Coaching departments. It is supported and endorsed by the Canadian Soccer Association.
The Coach will be trained to achieve a few objectives on the field:
- Enable children to have a fun and rewarding experience while competing in small sided games.
- Ensure player safety.
- Implement simplified rules while keeping the game moving — limiting stoppages and assisting the young players with all restarts.
Completing the Game Leader training is very simple. The entire online process of watching the video, completing the quiz, printing your Game Leader Certificate and printing/saving your Game Leader booklet should take no longer than 35 minutes.
Coaches, if you are not the primary account holder in the Power Up registration system, you are required to have an individual account with a unique email address.
