This course is a great reminder of how important it is to coach the total person, not just the tactical skills. The videos are relatable, inspiring and easy to understand so that you can apply the principles. The course refreshed my motivation on why I coach!

The course impressively highlights each area of coaching and doesn't focus on the generic roles & responsibilities of being a team leader. I didn't anticipate being moved by a "mandatory training" but I was surprisingly inspired as I clicked through each video. All the reasons I wanted to be a coach were talked about in this course and solidified my decision even more to put myself in a position of leading youth athletes.

This course was very instrumental in helping me develop my coaching style and thinking about my "why." I am a first-time athletic coach for a VHSL sport and the information I received will help me support my student athletes.
