What is the Emerging Coach Program?
Only 25 percent of all youth coaches are female. Only 43 percent of college women’s teams are coached by women. Those numbers drastically decrease when looking at women coaching men’s college programs. One way Rush Wisconsin is trying to address this issue is through the Emerging Coach Program.
What is the Emerging Coach Program?
Rush Wisconsin’s Emerging Coach Program is an identification program for Rush female high school athletes who show potential to coach soccer.
Two selected athlete applicants that participate in the 6-month program will receive;
- Paid access to the WWSAC Symposium in the winter and US Soccer Federation Grassroots Coaching Course (Winter/Spring)
- An assigned mentor from within Rush WI, helping emerging coaches determine their coaching goals and align with what the Rush WI offers
- Apprentice coach role and coaching development with the Rush WI winter programming in January – March 2024
- Network building opportunities amongst fellow emerging coaches, Rush WI staff, and various players, directors, referees, and coaches in Madison and at WWSAC Symposium and USSF Course.
During the Mentor Program, Mentees will be expected to:
- Work to engage, develop, and foster a meaningful relationship with their assigned Mentor
- Attend and actively engage in WWSAC Symposiym (Winter)
- Actively participate in winter soccer programming with mentor (will work around your schedule)
- Attend and actively engage in USSF Grassroots Coaching Course
- Create and Reflect on coaching philosophy, coaching goals, coaching decisions, and next steps.
- Contribute to the development of the Emerging Coach Program, helping Rush WI improve this program for the next group
