FROM GRASSROOTS AND BEYOND

Intro in hand, you are free to choose any of the grassroots courses that meet your needs. Whether you are just getting started or coaching 11v11 there is an online and in-person course right for you.
To take the D course, you’ll need at least two grassroots in-person courses and an online license. After the D, you’ll need six months of experience to take the C course. From there, entry to the pro pathway requires an application to each course and more robust prerequisites.
