There is a difference between us (the Michigan High School Soccer Coaches Association ... MHSSCA) and the Michigan High School Athletic
Association (MHSAA). The MHSAA deals with your school in regard to school policies, tournaments and rules. Our
association, the MHSSCA, deals with three areas: 1) Awards (recognition of member coaches and their athletes) 2) Training (providing clinics and
coaching information for members) 3) Promotion (our mission includes promoting high school soccer within the state of Michigan). The roles of the two
organizations do not overlap, but should and do complement each other. |

You do not have to be a member of the association to coach for your school or to coach in the MHSAA tournament. This is a volunteer
organization. There are many reasons to belong, however. If you are not a member, the following will not be available to you when you need it, deserve it, or
