High School Coaches About the High School Coaches Academy This High School Academy is modeled after our NCAA Women Coaches Academy (WCA). This program provides skills training for coaches at all experience levels to assist them in being more efficient, productive, resourceful and successful. The main objectives of the WCA are to provide relevant, usable skills and perspectives, as well as to aid in career retention. Coaches can now easily access the best training available for their professional development and success. This program is not for the timid — we challenge coaches — to ask tough questions, of themselves and of their profession. We offer new ideas, new perspectives, new insights, and new skills. In our time together, we will build friendships, alliances and networks -- a community -- of women in sport. There is no doubt that the Women Coaches Academy has made an impact on the coaches who have attended, and in turn, they will impact the lives of their student athletes. It’s simple – as a coach grows and develops better skills and perspectives -- student athletes and schools benefit.
For directions to Drury University: www.drury.edu Go Coaches! “The Academy took the passion & spark I have for coaching and ignited it into an inferno!” “The WCA was the best professional development opportunity I have ever experienced during my 14 years of college coaching. Coaching is about seizing human potential, and the Academy teaches many ways of maximizing student/athlete development on and off the playing surfaces. The Academy is a must for any coach -- young or old!” “After 21 years of coaching, I am more committed than ever to the coaching profession and to sharing the many important values that can be learned through sports.” "The Women Coaches Academy is an experience I will always carry with me. As a young coach I had much to learn and I credit the WCA for allowing me to see my career in a whole new light.” |
