Coaches,

Coaches Clinics
No matter how much experience you have as a player or coach, you can still discover better ways to improve each individual player's skill and technique and the overall play of your team. Visit our player development page to find videos, books, and websites we recommend to help you become a better coach.

Disputes And Complaints
Unfortunately, every season there are disagreements regarding rules, calls (or lack of calls), other parents and/or coaches conduct or behavior. First and foremost, don't compound the problem by becoming part of the problem. Second, you are responsible for your parents. Under no circumstances are coaches, players, or parents to question a ref's call or be confrontational with an opposing coach or parent. If you know you lost your composure, please apologize to the referee, other coach, or parent. After the game please email Eric Slife at wenatcheesoccer@gmail.com, so we can resolve the matter.
