Volunteer Requirements

GRASC operaters under the umbrella of Minnesota Youth Soccer Association.

ALL VOLUNTEERS (including Coaches):

  1. MYSA Background Check
  2. Safesport Training (you will receive a link after you complete your background check).
  3. Concussion Training (every three years)

BACKGROUND CHECK
Each year, all registered MYSA adults must pass a background check to work and interact with players. Registered adults include head coaches, assistant coaches, team managers, club administrators, referees, and really, any adult who interacts with a youth player in conjunction with soccer.

These adult participants must meet certain minimum standards, and if an adult does not meet these standards, the person is disqualified and cannot participate in any capacity.


SAFESPORT TRAINING
All registered adults must complete SafeSport training, which aims to educate adults on emotional, physical, and sexual misconduct in sport. This training complies with the Federal law, and also teaches adults their duties of mandatory reporting. All adults must complete a 90-minute training at the beginning of their first year, and then are required to complete a 30-minute refresher course annually. All registered MYSA members receive the training free of charge through a link that is provided after completion of a background check

Other adults including parents are welcome and encouraged to also complete the free trainings on the SafeSport website: https://uscenterforsafesport.org/training-and-education/training-and-education-services/ 

CONCUSSION TRAINING
We require registered adults to complete concussion training every three years. While there are various online concussion trainings available, we endorse CDC’s HEADS UP training. Parents are also encouraged to complete the free trainings on the website as concussion consequences don’t stay on the field.


Please contact Sean Martinson if you have any questions or need help getting these started.
