What makes a successful coach? Can someone provide examples of what it takes to be a top-notch coach?

successful meaning winning everything? Just spend enoug money to get the players you need and cross your fingers. Coaching becomes a task of referring the primadonas to be nice.
LA Lakers, NY Rangers, Real Madrid NY Yankees.
Real success is doing more than what is exepected with the resources you have. Look at the imporvement in record fo CofC womens soccer last year versus year before with essentially only one new player.
Look at what Chelsea did in the EPL this past year. Thats success.

OK, thanks! On another note, I'd like to ask those that have done both this question as well: Is coaching harder in high school or club? How about high school or college?

At the club level, I think that there is more talent. I know with the past three seasons, I had to take players right out of rec or those who had never played and tried to teach them to play high school soccer. Good clubs seems to contribute to better high school teams and I think that club level ball is more strenous than high school.

Alot of club teams just roll the ball out there due to the talent level being superior to those that they compete against. In some cases it's more "managing" than "coaching".

Good point hammer. I also hear that clubs are upping the requirements for coaching. You will eventually have to have an A license for a premier team.

I did read in the SCYSA News that effective 2006-07 all club coaches will have to be licensed.
Does anyone know if this means only USSF licenses or do NSCAA diplomas count as well?

Not sure, but a USSF "C" license with USSF is equal to a "National" level for NSCAA. One would think they would have to allow both...
