2017 Event Information February 23 – 25, 2017 Event Partners www.SoccerChampionsClinic.com www.SoccerChampionsClinic.com 2017 SOCCER CHAMPIONS COACHES' CLINIC LED BY TONY DICICCO & RAY REID AT THE MOHEGAN SUN CONVENTION CENTER - UNCASVILLE, CT Welcome to the 2017 Soccer Champions Coaches’ Clinic at Mohegan Sun. Thank you for joining us for a weekend of soccer coaching education. We are excited to present some of the world’s very best soccer clinicians, including: Sigi Schmid, Dick Bate, Becky Burleigh, Dave Hancock, Ian Barker, Chris Gbandi, Tom Goodman, Ralph Perez, Mario Prata, Deb Raber, and Ian Mulliner, among others. We have spent considerable time selecting our clinicians, designing and evolving a curriculum to address the needs of coaches of all levels, securing top partners such as adidas, the National Soccer Coaches Association of America, U.S. Soccer, and the Connecticut Junior Soccer Association and Massachusetts Youth Soccer, and partnering with a world-class facility like Mohegan Sun, which gives us the space we need to effectively convey coaching concepts and activities without leaving the warmth of the Convention Center. Each year, we seek to improve your clinic experience. We have added new coaching education offerings, the NSCAA High School Coaching Special Topics Diploma and the Soccer Champions Developing Positive Leadership Course. Once again, building upon last year's success, we are videotaping our sessions and making them available for purchase shortly after the clinic (we will offer an exclusive rate to our clinic attendees). We have improved our Event App, giving you critical clinic information which is conveniently accessible on a range of devices. Our clinic provides more than three days of cutting-edge instruction; it provides a chance to exchange ideas and learn from each other. We will be available throughout the clinic – as will our presenters – so don’t hesitate to introduce yourself, ask a question or provide your own perspective on the game. We want to thank our major sponsors for their support, including: Mohegan Sun, adidas, Soccer & Rugby, sportsYou, Jaypro Sports, Traveling Teams, Soccer Learning Systems, Geno’s Fast Break Restaurants, the Ray Reid Soccer School, SoccerPlus GK School and FP Academy, Challenger Sports, and The Coaches' Insider. We would like to recognize the NSCAA for their support and partnership. And, we thank Joe Guerra, Josh Krusewski, Mario Prata and the entire Connecticut Junior Soccer Association staff, as well as Ian Mulliner from the Massachusetts Youth Soccer Association, for their “E” License Program administration. Finally, we would like to thank all of our participating exhibitors – and we encourage you to visit them during the event. In closing, enjoy the clinic (we hope it evokes thoughts of spring and warmer days ahead) and please take the time during and after this weekend to let us know your thoughts on making next year’s Soccer Champions Coaches’ Clinic even better. Yours in soccer and coaching, Tony DiCicco Ray Reid Rick Orluk www.SoccerChampionsClinic.com SOCCER CHAMPIONS EVENT SCHEDULE Thursday, February 23, 2017: TIME SESSION 2017 PRESENTER 2017 TOPIC LOCATION GENERAL EVENT REGISTRATION 4:15pm-9:00pm Convention Center Pre-Function Area Mario Prata/ Required Courses for Brotherton Room/ 5:00pm-9:15pm E License* CJSA Staff E License Candidates Upper Level Mtg.
