Closed event for Seabird Island Band participants with prerequisites for Grassroots Active Start Coaching Workshop.

I∙SPARC (Indigenous Sport, Physical Activity & Recreation Council) – Fraser Region- is pleased to partner with Seabird Island Band and their Youth Employment Program to present Soccer Canada’s Grassroots Coach Education Program for up to 22 participants per program- Active Start and FUNdamentals.

The Grassroots Coach Education Program has four workshops based on the Long-Term Player Development Model. The first three workshops, Active Start, FUNdamentals and Learn to Train, deal with soccer training and the importance of physical literacy for players up to 12 years of age. The fourth workshop is called Soccer for Life and focuses on working with players age 13 and older through to “masters soccer”. The Soccer for Life stage includes a wide array of participants who play for fun and fitness, those who enjoy recreational soccer, as well as those who prefer to play competitively but not at a high-performance level.

Our Grassroots Coaching offering will cover Active Start and FUNdamentals only. This is the Active Start On-Field session.
