Risk Management

• Any adult who is representing Waxhaw Soccer Club as a Coach, Assistant Coach, Team Parent, or anyone that would come into contact with players, MUST complete the WAA Coach & Volunteer Application. This application will process a WAA Background Check as well as WAA Safe Sport Training program. This is SEPARATE from the NCYSA Safe Sport Training. 
• SafeSport training must be complete before stepping on the field and helping in any way. This includes parents who want to help set up cones, etc.
• For NCYSA, you will need to complete their SAFE SPORT TRAINING. Click Here To Begin. 
• As part of the training, a background check will also be performed.
• SafeSport training is required every "soccer year" and resets in the summer. One you've completed the first time, the subsequent trainings are refresher courses.
• Soccer years run from fall to spring, so if you took the SafeSport class to coach in the fall, you do not have to take it in the spring. If you take the SafeSport training for the first time in a "soccer year" in the spring, and you want to continue to coach the following fall, you must take the SafeSport training again before the following fall season starts.
• The first time you take the training it should take you about 90 minutes. After that you'll only need to take the refresher course each "soccer year."
