January 3, 2013 1 Comment »

Check out the list of presenters and topics including me online.  The USOC hosted this conference in 2011 and they do a great job putting it all together.

The United States Olympic Committee (USOC) is pleased to again host the National Coaching Conference, supported by the USA Coaching Coalition members (NASPE, NCAA, NFHS, USOC) in Colorado Springs June 19 – 21, 2013.  The conference will take place at the Doubltree World Arena Hotel in Colorado Springs.  This annual conference provides an opportunity for stakeholders in the development of amateur sport in the US to come together to discuss the development of a more strategic, integrated, and aligned system of athlete and coach development can positively impact US athletes, coaches, and sport organizations.

The 2013 conference theme is “Quality Coaches, Quality Sport” and will focus on providing coaches and educators with research-based, practical information and tools to develop, expand, and improve their programs.  All proposals will align with the National Standards for Sport Coaches (NASPE, 2006) and reflect the vision of the USA Coaching Coalition.

The conference will begin with pre-conference workshops and business meetings on Tuesday, June 18th and the conference opening will take place at lunch on Wednesday, June 19th.  Programming will run through the afternoon of Friday, June 21st.  The USOC will also host the Coach of the Year Awards Dinner on Friday evening, June 21st, honoring the finalists for the USOC Coach of the Year Awards and announcing the national award recipients.
