Why should I come to this coaches clinic?
The National Soccer Coaches Seminar is a great place to continue to learn new trends in the game from two of the great coaches in the country in our men’s and women’s Notre Dame head coaches. All of our clinicians are very approachable and accessible. After each session the clinician will go over to a white board and answer questions attendees have regarding not only the session just run, but any other questions that come up. Coaches will also have the chance to eat lunch and mingle with members of the Notre Dame soccer teams. This lunch is included in the seminar fee.
Do I have to pay to attend lunch?
No. This is included in the seminar fee.
How long are the sessions?
We plan on each session lasting around 45 minutes. This allows the clinician time over at our white board to answer any questions coaches have following the session and time for the next clinician to set up.
