Coaching Resources

Minnesota Youth Athletic Services endorses
a coaching education for youth sport coaches

MYAS has partnered with ASEP to offer youth sport associations and their coaches ASEP’s Coaching Youth Sport online and classroom courses.  Perhaps the most important step we can take to ensure a positive experience for our young athletes is to guarantee that coaches are properly trained and prepared for their roles as coaches and mentors. The ASEP program will help our coaches to be better communicators, teachers, managers and motivators and to be positive role models and champions of good sportsmanship.

Quality coaching education has never been as convenient and affordable as it is right now. Your coaches want it. Your kids deserve it. And you can afford it. To get your program started, call Mike DeWane at the MYAS offices at 763-781-2220, ext. 1742 or call his cell at 952-393-1929 or e-mail him at mike@myas.org.  You can also contact ASEP directly for bulk pricing or implementation questions:  Lori Brown, ASEP Youth Sports Consultant, 800-747-5698 x 2299 LoriB@hkusa.com.
