The US Youth Soccer University is the first-ever gathering of educational resources designed to educate members on a multitude of subjects so they can perform better on and off the field of play.
TSSA are currently implementing their bespoke instance of the University and will onboard coaches, administrators, officials, players and parents over the coming months. Tennessee State Soccer’s vision is to be the Premier state association known for partnerships, promotions and pioneering the next movement of soccer. Through this new partnership with etrainu and the USYS University, Tennessee is pioneering grassroots development, both on and off the field.
Alongside the existing national curriculum, TSSA will utilize the University to offer a number of State specific courses, initially focused on coach development. The combination of the national and State curriculum will create a lasting impact for players, parents, coaches, officials and administrators.
