An estimated 6.5 million sports coaches provide instruction to youth. Less than 5% have received relevant training, according to the National Council for Accreditation of Coaching Education. Meaningful relationships between coach and athlete are foundational for youth to receive the outcomes associated with sports. A coach provides a caring environment, acceptance and proper guidance. Let’s help make every coaching experience a positive one!
OBJECTIVE
Invest in coaches to become mentors, shaping the futures of youth athletes. You can be more than just a coach. You can also be a mentor. Mentoring goes beyond teaching plays and techniques. It’s about nurturing character, resilience, and leadership skills. Some 16 million youth reach adulthood without a mentor’s guidance. That’s why Coach-Mentor Training™ (CMT) and your training workshops are centerpieces for the week.
