Hello Coaches, Colorado Soccer is now using GotSoccer to track the background checks and CDC test which are required to coach in the 2018/2019 season and on. 

Below are important instructions on how to complete both steps. Your coach account has been created for you.  

To watch a video on how to complete everything, use this link: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=iRKIQh1RJw8 

Step 1: Log into your account at https://www.gotsport.com/asp/users/login_menu.asp?tab=member then click on the “Coach Account Lookup” link where you 

can enter your e-mail address so you can get your password. Once you have both your username/password click on the link at the bottom of the e-mail and login. 

Step 2: Ensure all your contact information and picture are up to date on your account under the "My Profile" tab. 

Step 3. Click on the "Background Checks" tab and click on "Submit New Report." Fill out the required information and submit the background check. If it is clear, it will be approved within 24 hours. 

Step 4. Once the background check is submitted, click on the "Concussion Center" tab and click on "Go to Courses Page" under Center for Disease Control (CDC) Heads Up Concussion Test. Click "Start Course" and complete the course. The course requires you to be active throughout, so do not let it run without you being at the computer. 

If you have already completed the course and it doesn't reflect in GotSoccer, please email your certificate to riskmanagement@coloradosoccer.org. You will still need to complete a sexual abuse training video, and we will have more instructions on how to complete that last requirement in the coming week or two. 

You WILL NOT be able to coach until the background check and concussion test have been completed. 

If you wish to speak to someone regarding the course, please email 

riskmanagement@coloradosoccer.org. 

Do not contact your local club. They cannot override these requirements.
