Youth Football Coaches Association Certification Exam
Dear League Administers,
Many leagues are in search of means to make sure that the coaches are going thru a formal certification or training program prior to taking the field this season.
I have prepared a simple PowerPoint presentation that outlines the Youth Football Coaches Association Certification Exam.
Youth Football Coaches Association has partnered with Coeus Global to provide you with a way to certify your criminal background check according to Youth Football Coaches Association Certification standards.

What if I do not pass the exam? The goal of this certification process is to prepare coaches to take the field. You will be permited to retake the certification as many times as needed until passed for only one (1) exam fee.
Can the Certiftcaion Exam be customized for my league? Yes, We can add any specific questions that your league would require of it's coaches. Contact us at certificaion@yfbca.org to arrnage a special exam for your league.
Do I have to take the exam each year to stay certified? No, once certified a coach must complete their 50 coaching credits to maintain their level of certification.
