SASC Coach / Manager Registration

The Adult registration process is managed via the GotSport website.

GotSport Account/Login

• All returning coaches log in using this link


• All coaches new to SASC will need to create an account using this link.
• Please add a photo to your account, it should be a head and shoulders, passport style photo with no hats or sunglasses. This will be used for your coach pass if required


• Note that coaches who were previously registered/cleared as SASC coaches, but logging into GotSport for the first time, will likely already have an account created. From the GotSport Login page, select the 'forgot password' function. You must use the same email address you have used in the past. You need to add your birthdate to your account to enable the transfer of your previously completed LiveScan. Please do that first.

GotSport Dashboard

Once you are logged in to GotSport, select the 'Dashboard' tab on the left side of the top menu bar to see the status of your required elements. Note that the requirements shown will differ depending if you are are registering as a Recreational coach, Competitive coach, or both.

• Each requirement will be shown as either 'Fulfilled' or 'Required'.


• In order to complete any unfulfilled requirement, click on the corresponding 'More Info' link and follow the instructions. You will need to follow a link to an external website to complete the certification. Make sure you use the same email address for these sites, as this is how your completed certification is tied back to your GotSport Dashboard

All Coaches must complete the following four requirements:

1. Live Scan Fingerprinting (NEW as of 3/2/22)
• Coaches/Managers usually need to perform this requirement for SASC only once.
  The only reason this requirement is needed is if:
• It has NEVER been completed for SASC before, or
• There has been a 2-year interruption in coach/manager registration.


• To complete this requirement, first log into the CalNorth Live Scan website as follows:
• https://www.applicantservices.com/calnorth/
• Click on "Get Fingerprinted at a Live Scan Service Center"
• Follow the instructions to log in
• The site will lead you through an 8 step process (helpful video here)
• For "District/League/Club", please select "253 - Sunnyvale Alliance Soccer Club"
  (It's currently at the very bottom of the pull-down list, but that may change)
• Select a convenient Live Scan service center and make an appointment time
• Submit payment by credit card ($25) - note that SASC will reimburse this to you afterward
• A completed Live Scan request form will be generated and sent to you.
  This includes a proof of payment QR code
• At the appointed time, go to the selected Live Scan service center to get fingerprinted.
  Make sure to either bring a hardcopy of the request form, or the QR code on your phone
• Please keep the proof-of-payment/receipt, as instructions for getting reimbursement from SASC will be provided soon


2. Background Check
• This is an online background check.


3. SafeSport Certification
• This is a Federal requirement for all youth coaches
• For first-time coaches, the initial SafeSport certification takes approx. 60-90 minutes to complete
• For returning coaches, the SafeSport "refresher" certification takes approx. 30 minutes to complete


4. Introduction to Safety
