An Investment in Changing the Culture of Youth Sports



It has come to our attention that the Badger Region has made a significant investment in organizing a unique educational program for club directors, coaches, parents and athletes.

The goal: Encourage respect for the game and its participants.

Stage one of the program occurs at the end of January as club directors are encouraged to participate in one-hour webinars. Then, in February, there will be live workshops for coaches, parents and athletes in four areas of the state: Appleton, Madison/Wisconsin Dells, Milwaukee and Eau Claire.

It's all part of Positive Coaching Alliance, a national program "transforming youth sports so sports can transform youth." The cost per participant is low, but the return on that investment will be huge. You can get complete details at the Badger Region site.
