Apply for a State Trainer Pass

A prospective trainer must register in the online registration system.  They must register for risk management and the trainers pass all in the same registration system.  The fee is $125 (plus an $8 risk management fee).  The registrants will consent to display their trainer level and name on the ENY website.  The State Office will review the request, verify the licenses are valid (verification through USSF and United Soccer Coaches), and insure they have completed their risk management through the risk management system.  A trainer’s pass will be issued based on the level of licenses.  

Please note the minimum License requirement to be an ENYYSA "certified" professional trainer is a USSF D National, National Youth Coaching Course (NYCC) and/or an NSCAA Advanced National Diploma.  However, those who only receive a Certificate of Participation (CP) on the NSCAA Advanced National Diploma will NOT be issued a trainer pass. 

As of Nov 11 2022, any US soccer license issued by the ENY Adult Association will not be considered as sufficient proof to obtain an ENYYSA trainer pass.

As of August 1, 2017, those receiving an ENYYSA Trainer Pass cannot hold it in conjunction with a club coaching pass.

When registering for the trainers pass, you must also register for your background check (cost is $8). This will insure that the Risk Management expiration date coincides with your Trainers Pass expiration date.  

Go to your account in the GotSport system.  Click on the DASHBOARD in your profile. The 3 risk management requirements will be listed:

• Background Check – once every two years

• Heads Up Concussion Awareness – once every two years

• Safe Sport – yearly renewal with a refresher course

Over to the right of each, it will say MORE INFO and when you click on that, it will take you to that test to be completed.  Any questions, call Diana at ENYYSA - 516-766-0849.
