Description

In 1941, National Soccer Coaches Association of America (NSCAA) was founded. Now known as United Soccer Coaches, the largest soccer coaches organization in America (and the world) has been a key driver for the continued and evolving education of the coaching ranks. They were an initial investor in the coaching curriculum developed by US Soccer and then created their own programs later. The United Soccer Coaches organizes an annual convention that draws over 15,000 attendees and 200 vendors, connecting the soccer community in a vital way.

Former president of United Soccer Coaches, Dr. Missy Price, joined us to share her journey through the coaching ranks and her passion for coaching education. She talks about her tenure at the helm of United Soccer Coaches and how she believes it and other organizations have advanced the discipline of coaching in America.

Founding Futbol is a year-long exploration of the critical moments that have led to soccer's emerging popularity in America.
