Benefits
Series....
For the next few publications I plan to focus on the many benefits offered to our members by NC Youth Soccer. To name a few - Risk Management and KidSafe; registration and affiliation; insurance (supplemental medical and liability); skill appropriate levels of play; regional and national leagues; state, regional and national championships; Olympic Development program; coaching education; newsletter; informative website; leadership in state, regional and national policy; administrative assistance and A VOICE IN GOVERNANCE! We know our member associations work hard to provide their players with a wonderful experience and we strive to support those efforts.
