            · to educate youth soccer coaches; 
            · to increase the number of youth soccer players;
            · to increase the retention-rate of youth soccer players; and

MSCA partnered with NSCAA to offer Special Topics Diploma

Registrants for the 2013 MSCA Spring Coaching Clinic had the option to earn a NSCAA Special Topics - Player Development Diploma. In addition to receiving the Player Development Diploma, each registrant who was not already a NSCAA Full Member, received a one-year introductory membership to the NSCAA.

We look forward to offering other Special Topics Diplomas in the future.
