We sincerely appreciate your efforts in helping to nurture the young soccer players of Marblehead, and to help run our proud and historic league. All volunteer roles are needed and appreciated.

If you would like to volunteer, please email us at marbleheadsoccer@gmail.com and specify any skills or expertise you may want to bring to MYSA or a particular role, if any, you would be interested in.

If you have already volunteered, you will need to follow the instructions below in order to obtain your credentials. You will need your credentials with you any time you are on the practice field or at a game. If you don’t have it with you it is likely that the ref will not allow you on the field with the players.

Steps to obtaining your credentials:

  1. Complete an Annual Mass Youth Soccer Online Adult Registration. To complete your Adult Registration click the following link: U.S. Soccer Connect Adult Registration Portal.
  2. PLEASE NOTE: Once you have completed your Adult Registration, you should use the U.S. Soccer Connect Login Portal to find training links and review registration information. Please use the provided URL to review the Commonwealth of Mass CORI Policy
  3. Be CORI Approved.
  4. National Background Check (NBGC) Approved (NBGC includes the State and National Sex Offender Registry Searches).
    • Completing the Mass Youth Soccer Adult Registration is inclusive of adding the information needed and submission of both the CORI and National background checks.
    • Adults will have one Risk Status and Risk Expire Date visible in their registration account; this is the combination of the review of both the CORI and National background check reports.
  5. Completed the SafeSport Abuse Prevention training and be checked as verified/approved. Policy information and how to complete this training are found in the “SafeSport Abuse Prevention Training Help Guide”.
  6. Complete concussion training and be checked as verified/approved. Policy information and how to complete this training are found in the “Concussion Training Help Guide”. IMPORTANT, we now accept the U.S. Soccer Learning Center Safe Healthy Playing Environment course training; please check the help guide for more policy information.
  7. If you have not previously done so (CORI Verification is a one-time event unless you change your name), you are required to print your CORI Acknowledgement form and contact your local organizations Risk Manager, as they are required to CORI Verify you. This is done by either sending a notarized CORI Acknowledgement form, or meeting with your organizations Risk Manager to verify the information on the form in person, against a government issued photo ID. Then, the Risk Manager will mark you as CORI Verified in the registration system. This is a Commonwealth of Massachusetts Law.
