Please complete the Coach Registration link to indicate your interest in volunteering. All coaches must complete certification including a background check. You will receive instruction from Jen Sherman, our Club Registrar, after you sign up on the steps to follow to complete your certification.
The team must have a coach or administrator from within the same club (FC Exeter) at all scheduled matches in which the team participates. The coach or administrator must be in possession of a valid US Club coaching pass. You can have an assistant coach who has a coach pass work with you and one of you must be at the game or the match will be forfeited. Maximum of 5 coaches are permitted on teams sideline.
There is a small fee for both the background check ($18) and a Sideline Doc certification ($5), These expenses will be reimbursed by FC Exeter, simply send a copy of each receipt and the mailing address for reimbursement to Treasurer@exeterhawkssoccer.com.
No, your coach pass is eligible for two years.
There will be a coaches kickoff meeting prior to each season start where you will receive information on the season, coaches jersey and equipment bag. FC Exeter policies and game rules will also be communicated. Separate Player cards are no longer used by the league and are instead embedded within weekly game rosters emailed to coaches prior to each game.
If you need any waivers for tourneys, guest players rostered, or additional rosters (currently you need 2-3 for each game for opposing coach and referee) contact Jen Sherman our Club Registrar: registrar@exeterhawkssoccer.com.
Score reporting is the responsibility of the HOME team and should be reported immediately after each match. Info on this is covered at the Coaches Meeting and also located on the Leagues (NNESL or NHSL) website
