Every Head Coach, Assistant Coach or team volunteer is required to take SafeSport training.  SafeSport is free for you to take, but is paid for by USSoccer. Taking SafeSport will take you about 90 minutes, and you will have to take several evaluations on the way, and a final evaluation at the end of the course. It is recommended that you take the course from a Laptop or Desktop computer, as I have received reports that the program can be difficult to navigate on a phone or tablet.
