How are coaches chosen for the teams?
A. All intramural and most travel coaches are parents that volunteer to coach a team at registration time. Every season the STM program has to search for additional coaches because there are never enough coaches to cover all of the teams. Most of the coaches are a parent of a player on the team. Coaches volunteer their time to work with your player during practices and games. Some coaches grew up playing soccer, some have watched their children play and some have never played soccer or coached soccer before. The STM soccer program offers coaching classes and clinics before and during the season to help all of the coaches, no matter what their prior experience is.
