To function as a sports coach you would need degrees in subjects such as coaching, sports science, sports studies, movement studies or physical education

A college coach, or any college instructor, must be certified. To be certified you must have a degree in the field you will work. Certification is handled through most State School Boards so try googling or 50 States' Certification Requirements | Academic Services and Teacher Certification (http://education.uky.edu/AcadServ/content/50-states-certification-requirements)
