DAVIS AYSO is looking for adult volunteer applications to serve as Division Coach Administrators (DCA) for 2024 (Spring and Fall seasons).
The DCA role is a non-voting, board position that is critical to the organization of all AYSO Core programs. Without DCAs there are no teams and no one plays soccer. Because DCAs recruit coaches and form teams, they also have an important role in shaping and stewarding current programs to ensure they are in line with core AYSO Davis philosophy. This is a fantastic opportunity to volunteer to our community and youth soccer!
The DCA role is an administrative role with no specific in-person training or on-field responsibilities. All of the work can be done from your computer (email, spreadsheets) on your schedule. You will be required to complete general AYSO online training (e.g., Safe Haven). No prior experience is needed.
Preferred eligibility:
- NOT serving as a head coach in the current or next AYSO season (Spring, Fall).
- NOT currently serving in another board role.
- Able to continue in the role for a full year.
- Familiar with AYSO programs. Prior DCA experience is a plus!
Requirements:
- Core AYSO training and certification: Background check, Safe Haven, SafeSport, Fingerprint
Commitment:
~4 h/wk in the month before season starts, ~1 h/wk during the season. Seasons are: Spring: April - May; Fall: September - October
Responsibilities:
- Support coach certification - make sure that volunteer coaches complete the steps required for certification
- Recruit new coaches from adult registrants (email, text)
- Organize balanced teams (spreadsheet)
- Support coaches during season by responding to questions (attend coaches meeting) and relaying information to/from AYSO leadership
- Lead player rating meetings at the end of the season and upload ratings (10U and up).
