Summary: Effective coaching at all levels of children’s and youth sports can make a difference in lives and communities.
Report: The messages of a simple movie, The Blind Side, are many. One message that comes through loud and clear is the influence of a coach in a young athlete’s life. One young man’s life was changed, families were changed, teams were changed and eventually communities can be changed as well. The Positive Coaching Alliance has developed training and philosophy to help coaches and athletic programs bring out the very best in their players and parents of players. The philosophy is simply verbalized with powerful images and in easy-to-remember lessons. Besides the online resources, the Alliance provides online and on-site training for coaches, school districts, and athletic associations. Link to the website here.
