In addition to a national rankings program for colleges and high schools, NSCAA offers an extensive recognition program that presents nearly 10,000 individual awards every year. The NSCAA fulfills its mission of coaching education through a nationwide program of clinics and week-long courses, teaching more than 6,000 soccer coaches each year.

National Soccer Coaches Convention

When it comes to soccer events around the world, few can parallel the National Soccer Coaches Association of America's Convention. No other event matches the fun, excitement and learning opportunities this annual gathering offers to soccer coaches at all levels of the game.

Whether it's learning the basics of coaching goalkeepers or a high-level discussion of systems of play, every coach who attends will find something new to add to their soccer repertoire.

The NSCAA serves as the recognized leader in naming All-America soccer players, and nearly 800 players who have been named NSCAA All-America are invited to the Convention to be honored at a special luncheon.
