Mother Lode Youth Soccer League (MLYSL) welcomes and appreciates our volunteer coaches.

Coaches and assistant coaches must complete:

1. A good recent photo –no sunglasses, masks or hats that cover the face, not too dark or too light and it needs to look age appropriate.
2. Reading the Coach Policy section in Playing Policy and Procedures
3. Get fingerprinted with Capital Live Scan. MLYSL will provide dates to have this done. You only need to do this one time.
4. Complete the SafeSport and Intro to Safety training for coaches as required by law.

A coach’s pass will not be printed or distributed to a coach without a completed registration. There must be a pass-carrying coach or assistant coach present with the players at all times. It is the coach’s responsibility to complete the registration process and ensure they are in possession of their pass PRIOR to the first practice. ONE (1) Head coach PER TEAM in all age groups. Assistant coaches must complete the same registration process as the Head Coach; they can be assigned to a team by MLYSL Board of Directors or Head Coach with the approval of MLYSL Board of Directors.

MLYSL requires our volunteers to pass a Live Scan background check. Please see above for Live Scan dates. You will need to bring a government issued photo ID.

Thank you for taking your valuable time to volunteer with MLYSL. We would not be able to play soccer without you!
