**Attention GNWSA Coaches**
Coach Registration
Register Now!
1) Register to Coach
2) NTSSA Risk Assessment: As part of the registration, you will be asked to complete a background check. This only needs to be done once every 12 months. If you are a new coach you MUST complete this step prior to receiving team roster or being assigned to a team.
Both of these steps MUST be completed in order for you to be assigned to a team.
NOTE: If you are a returning coach and experience problems accessing your COACH account, contact the GNWSA Registrar at registrar@gwnsa.com for assistance. Please do not create a new account as this creates duplicate records and causes issues when making team assignments.
