All coaches are required to display their coach badge at games. This means, it should always be displayed around your neck on the sideline, in the dugout, on the field/court or on the bench. 

Please follow the steps below to make sure you will get your badge in time for the Spring 2024 season.

Only registered coaches who have completed their criminal background check, child abuse prevention training, have uploaded a photo and have been moved to the team roster will be issued a coaching badge.

BADGE PHOTOS

Every coach must upload a yearbook style, head & shoulders photo to your registration profile.

• No other person, pet or object should be in view.
• Plain background preferred.
• No hats, sunglasses or other headwear, except for religious or cultural reasons.
• Subject should be seated or standing only.

To submit your photo: Log in to your Demosphere household account and upload a photo to your profile.

BADGE DISTRIBUTION

All coaches who have completed a criminal background check, child abuse prevention training and have uploaded a photo will have a photo printed by the ASA office staff prior to the current season coaches meeting. Badges will be brought to the coaches meeting so that one representative from the team can pick up the badges for the entire team staff.

Any coach who does not complete any of the required steps above at least 3 days prior to the coaches meeting will not have a badge printed and available for pick up at the coaches meeting. Those coaches will have to come to the ASA office during business hours after they’ve completed all the requirements to pick up their coaching badge prior to the season beginning.

OTHER INFORMATION

• Soccer badges will be good for one year (Spring/Fall).

  • Coaches will still need to register and complete any required background check and child abuse prevention training each season.
  • A new badge sticker will be issued annually if all steps have been completed.
• There will be a $5 fee for lost badges.
