Coaching Standards
Yorkton United FC is proud to be a
Canada Soccer Quality Soccer Provider, as such we believe that certified coaching provides an environment for players to develop skills, learn and nurture a love of soccer. We are committed to supporting all coaches who look to achieve or exceed the provincial coaching standards listed below.
Respect in Sport for Activity Leaders is a required training program for all registered coaches and team personnel of provincial sport governing bodies in Saskatchewan. Respect in Sport (RiS) for Activity Leaders is a tool designed to assist leaders to identify and respond to abuse, neglect, harassment, and bullying. RiS certificates expire after 5 years, at which time you must re-certify.
By successfully completing the NCCP
Make Ethical Decisions training, coaches will be fully equipped to handle ethical situations with confidence and surety. MED is a requirement for the FUNdamentals coaching workshop through to the A Licence workshop.
Concussions can occur while participating in any sport or recreation activity. Since the circumstances under which a concussion can be sustained are so varied, it's important for all coaches, parents/coaches/guardians, and athletes to be aware of the signs, symptoms, and what to do if a concussion occurs. The eLearning modules teach you how to recognize the signs and symptoms of a concussion - and also how to respond.
Background Screening
All coaches will need to complete an Enhanced Police Information Check (E-PIC). E-PIC can be starting by selecting the option when you register to coach with YUFC.
