where do i start, what are the first steps to being a certififed usa hockey coach? i looked on the usa hockey website, but i dont see any info about how to become certified.
thanks
The info is clearly on the site. You have to get a CEP card to coach. You have to take certifications to receive the card. Their a prereq's that determine what level you are allowed to coach at. Here is the link with all the info you could need. Think it's great you want to coach!

With the Olympics on the horizon, should USA hockey look in a new direction in terms of a head coach? Peter Laviolette would seem to be a good fit, as would John Tortorella. The bottom line is this: if Ron Wilson is America's only hope for international supremacy, then they are in serious trouble. Who would be a great fit to lead the Americans?
Looking at it from a different angle, I think what team USA should be looking at for a coach is a Don Cherry type of guy.
Maybe if Brett Hull or Jeremy Roenick (sp?) could coach, would generate a lot more interest in US hockey. Right , wrong or indifferent, and usually with little effort given to the thought process (like cme) , they have something to say. will say it loud and often. Due to their character, these 2 would generate more interest than an occasional extra win. In the long run extra interest would generate more players and that would lead to better players.
To start.... between 25,000 & 35,000 a year depending on where you live.
Do you think that it is unfair to cut a boy, saying he's too small/not big enough, yet the coach keeps a smaller player who he's a good friend with the dad for a AAA team in Rochester? Politics shouldn't have anything to do with making a hockey team. It's ridiculous.
Sorry, and I really mean that. Politics and minor hockey are always a big issue. I am a coach and a ref and after 3 games today, the balance between good and big is a real challenge.
I hope your son and you can deal with it. The child will NOT end up playing hockey for a living. Accept the life lesson, encourage him to do well in school and accept that hockey is a recreational activity, not a career.
You can officiate at any age according to USA Hockey. If you start earlier, the sooner you can develop mechanics and skills for better officiating opportunities.
