Ten HYSA coaches from the Recreational, Academy, and Arsenal programs braved the cold, wind, and snow this weekend and earned their USSF National ’E’ License. A total of 19 total coaches from as far as Whitefish and Bozeman attended the course, administered at the state level and ran by MYSA. The ’E’ license is USSF’s coaching license geared toward coaching 9 to 12-year-olds and is a requirement for MYSA competitive coaches. The 18-hours course was conducted as classroom sessions at the Residence Inn and field sessions at HYSA's Siebel Soccer Complex.
