Yes! We are always in need of coaches. As a club that values giving back to the community, we appreciate that parents volunteer with us. This is also a good opportunity for the parents to spend good time with their kids on the pitch. The club will cover all the fees for training and any for any courses required by CMSA for parents to become coaches. Please email us at info@mac-united.ca if you are interested in becoming a coach.
5. Are spots limited?
Registration will be open until the end of March. We highly encourage parents to register their kids and pay the fees online as early as possible so we can register teams with CMSA. If we don’t have enough players, then we won’t be able to make teams, register them with CMSA and start try-outs in a timely manner.
