Jacob Daniel - Charlotte Moran Long-Term Service Award (Youth)
Jacob Daniel - Charlotte Moran Long-Term Service Award (Youth)
Daniel has been a member of the NSCAA since 1990 and has held the position of state director of coaching for Georgia Soccer for 23 years. He is the longest serving state DOC for the same state in the country, while also serving as the Region III Boys ODP technical director and a Region III ODP staff member.
In his position as the director of coaching for Georgia Soccer, Daniel has had significant impact. Under his leadership, coaching course enrollment in Georgia has increased ten-fold from 250 in 1992 to 2,500 in 2001. Daniel successfully campaigned in the 1990s to implement mandatory licenses for youth coaches in Georgia, including all recreational and competitive coaches. Daniel also pushed for adoption of small-sided soccer in 1994, making Georgia one of the first states to mandate 3v3 at U6 and 4v4 at U8, and later, 6v6 at U10 and 8v8 at U12.
In his position as the Region III Boys ODP Technical Director, Daniel implemented an ODP integration process for the state and region ODP, instituting a region wide consistent playing style and training curriculum. It has now been adopted by all four Regional ODP (boys and girls), as well as by state associations across the country. Daniel authored the ODP Coaching Manual and the ODP Player Manual, and both are now the official US Youth Soccer ODP Manuals.
Also under Daniel’s stewardship, Georgia’s ODP has dramatically increased the number of players selected to the regional and national teams. In 1993, the number of Georgia players selected to the regional pools was 25. By 2014, the number climbed to 121. The number of players invited to national team camps at various age groups jumped from an average of three per year to 10 per year.
Daniel holds the NSCAA Premier Diploma, as well as the USSF ‘A’ License and National Youth licenses. He has been an advocate for NSCAA coaching education in Georgia and a leader in a partnership with the association in the state.
