Interested in becoming a Competitive Coach in 2012?
Coaching applications are now being accepted by the Club. Please download the application form and submit it to the office no later than September 9th in an envelope addressed to Tyler James, Rep Director, Lake Simcoe Soccer Club.

Coaches are reminded that all members (which includes players, parents and coaches) as well as any family guests, must abide by the policies of the Lake Simcoe Soccer Club as outlined in the 2011 Club Handbook. Please ensure that your extended team (players and parents) are aware of these policies.
Also, since all games and club events occur at the Georgina Civic Centre fields, the town by-laws must also be respected.
Byte Size Coaching
The Byte Size Coaching program is a coaching website containing a balanced and progressive curriculum designed to benefit the players and coaches alike. The curriculum should be used by both new and seasoned coaches. For the new coaches, the season plans and drills give you a one stop set up for your entire season. For the seasoned coaches, you can chose to use the whole program or customize to include in your season plan. Most of the drills have progressive elements to keep stretching the players as they become older and more skilful.
The user id and password have been provided to coaches this season. If you misplaced or forgot them, please email Paul Smith at headcoach@lakesimcoesoccer.com
Take the time to review the site and see how you can best use this resource.
