The differences between USSF & UEFA coaching licenses are huge in the beginning. The money required is another story…

It's £650 now for the UEFA C on the FA website.
Hey, cool video. I will like to know if you have contact for soccer association around Texas USA? If so will you be willing to share. Thanks for the video
Jake, thanks for this great content. Found this video recently and I have a question. How you managed apply the course through England FA? I checked the FA learning website and it states "You must be living in England and actively coaching a team in a season-long competition, as our Coach Developers may be required to travel to visit you during the course."
Jake, thank you. I have recently discovered your "vlog" and you are on point with all of your points. Thanks for the insights. Thanks for the positive delivery while providing a passionate yet critical lens. Keep it up!
And you can coach at any high school for 0$
I GOTE THE UEFA D AND ITS HARD NOW TO GET THE C BECAUSE OF NOT LIVING THERE
Hi Jake, I'm trying to get my UEFA C License. Do you know where to go in order to sign up? Did they require you to have any other license/certifications?
Are all of the Uefa class online?
You nailed it. Looking to do the Uefa through Italian football federation, but time and kids responsibility makes that tough. Any words of encouragement
7:31 lol
How much on average would a coach get paid in NYC if he had his D license ? and C license ?
Hey does the UEFA c license carry over in the states?! And why do y’all call it Soccer?! What’s is a Soccer?
Someone should help locate schools I can apply please help
Pls I want to know the schools where I can attend this school, I’m from Ghana and I want to apply next year..
Don't listen to ignorant people mate. More than anything, to be a good coach, you need humility, intelligence, and passion. You appear to tick all those boxes. Keep loving the game and posting your videos 👏👏👏
Hi Jake. This is a great video. Do you know how to verify if a coach has a UEFA license? If so, can you share? Thanks
As shallow as this question might sound: But with your experience in obtaining these licenses, where have you been able to coach and do you think it will replace your current job (what's pay like?)? Thanks!
Thank you for the video. I really appreciate your insight as I am considering doing the UEFA B in 2024!
A few things to understand…
– coaches in the US are earning up to $7,000 a year to coach a ‘competitive’ team. That’s more than enough to cover a C B or A license. Non-academy coaches in England are not.
– I have completed the USSF B and A between 2019 and 2023 and all hotels and food was included
– I have competed my UEFA C and Youth Modules 1/2/3 and never had hotels or food included
All were great licenses both sides of the pond!
Hey bro I’m 16 in the USA. What do u recommend I take?
How does a UEFA B coach find work in the US (Florida) asking from Europe
Im canadian so how would I go about obtaining my license and I am only 16 so is that allowed. Also is there a website where I can take the course
Hi Jake thanks for this insightful video. I'm a European football agent and was intrigued by your system. Will an ex-footballer trying to coach in the US need an equivalence for USSF or if the UEFA A / Pro will be enough? Or the other way around is it common for clubs to " finance " the licenses? I appreciate Jake and keep up the good work 🙂
I know I am commenting late to this vid, but a fantastic video with great insight.
In New Zealand, it is more expensive than the U.K but a bit cheaper than USA. In my C License course, I was the only person to front my costs myself on the course, and it took months of all my energy focused on work to earn enough money to be able to sit the course. I think the course is better and more valuable than a few years of Uni Undergrad.
Kia ora.
Hey brother hope you are doing well … Can you please share the name of that academy where you got your C licence from…. Thank you

Thank you for your time.
Just want to thank you. I’m taking my online USSF Grassroots courses online course tomorrow and 11v11 field course Saturday morning. It sounds like if I end up getting my D license I’m better off jumping to the UEFA C license as my next step based off monetary difference. This will be my 3rd year coaching rec soccer for U7-U8 and will be my first year coaching travel soccer as well.
Wow, I came across this just as I'm starting some of the "grassroots" courses with the idea of eventually getting some of the more advanced licenses, but damn, I was not aware of the insane prices farther down the road, especially compared to the English FA equivalents. Even the USSF D right now at $550 (at least where I'm at) is more expensive than the FA's C license price you have in this video. And then you add on that you have to take three grassroots level courses, one online and two in person, for a total of $185 before you can even take the D license. It's unfortunate just how insanely cost prohibitive even coaching is in the US, especially as you move up the ladder… Thanks for the video, very informative.
Great Video!
What's your opinion on USC? United Soccer Coaches.
I took three courses, I found them to be very educational, much more that USSF.
I live in holland its here worst. UEFA-C cost around 3k USD!
I enjoyed your video. I hold a D license currently and want to be a college coach.
I’m currently a high school physical ed teacher &boys soccer coach. I played in high school and college and send me resume and apply on the ncaa website to a lot of places for asssitsnt coach and don’t get a single callback.
I’m not sure spending 2k for a c license is gonna make then intrigued by me. What are your thoughts?
what a great video bro. Thanks for sharing your VERY credible experience!
Hello mate, great content, I wonder if there is an equivalence in the USA for UEFA License? i got a B one and i'm interesting to go to the usa, do you know something about that? thks
I have the Uefa Level 2 which is now the new Uefa C , im not surprised by the American prices because America only thinks about the dollar😑, also Football was never an American game so its not got the same passion as the English or European because its a sport from poor people hence the reason why the Greatest Player in the World Pele may he rest in peace used to play with a pinapple also a cloth ball.filled with socks , the USA federation in my opinion do coaches a dis service by creating a glass ceiling like that with prices so high because it means genuine good coaches who cant afford it lose out , there by impeding the USA's chances of winning anything major not to mention just being seen as a token team.with a bit of luck now and again, not trying to be disrespectful but all real evidence is in the history of any team when they started and what they have achieved and America is still in dypers in that sense.
Hey Jake, I am an 19 years old teenagers, living in Canada whom has ambition to be football (soccer) manager. What is the first step I should do and where should I sign up.
Thank you hope to hear from you soon
what is the site url for the Uefa license?
The pricing of the C level in US varies from place to place. I've seen it as low as $950, which is still very dear
excellent
Hello Jake thank you so much for your beautiful content. I am planning to take USSF coaching license. I wonder, does it have any equilavance when you start to getting UEFA coaching license? I mean if you have c or b level USSF and you need to move a European country will you need to start from beginning? Thanks in advance 😊
Please provide a link to information on how an American can earn the UEFA C in England. In Germany it is $2,000 or $2400 more than the $400 cost you described in England!
How much money can you make coaching soccer in America
