SACRAMENTO, Calif — Cal North will host U.S. Soccer National "B" license course for the second time starting January 2025.
Cal North is committed to providing all coaches, from beginner to advanced, with education tailored to their experiences and the needs of their players. The Coaching License Pathway consists of a series of courses designed to meet the specific needs of a coach at every step of the way. Cal North believes education is a journey, and our goal is to provide the necessary tools, guidance, and mentorship a coach requires.
"Cal North continues to be a leader in youth soccer. We are very excited to be hosting another National "B" license and look forward to welcoming all coaches that are looking to move up on their coaching journey," said Joyce Bordley, Cal North Coaching Education and ODP, Managing Director.
There is currently one US Soccer National "B" license course going on with the in-person portion taking place in Pleasanton, California.
"Cal North has done a tremendous job offering licenses from grassroots to National "C" courses in the last 18 months and for us to be granted to host the National "B" by U.S. Soccer speaks volumes of the work we've done with the coaches," she added. "Ultimately this will have a positive impact on coaches, clubs, leagues and most importantly, the players."
Registration for the U.S. Soccer National "B" Course will open later this month and will run from January 6 - June 22, 2025. The course will take place in Vacaville, California and is being co-hosted by Cal North & Vacaville United.
