Challenge Team Managers

Everything Team Managers need to know before, during and after the season!

I. Risk Management (Required)

All head coaches, assistant coaches, team managers and any other adult with a role on a Challenge team, must be "risk managed", which means complete and pass North Carolina Youth Soccer Association (NCYSA)'s Risk Management system. This must be done before practices start and you MUST notify your area administrator so they can begin the process of Risk Management and perform a background check.
