National spotlight on Coach Beyond program
The Million Coaches Challenge (MCC) report was released and nationally highlights LiFEsports, the Ohio High School Athletic Association and the Coach Beyond program. MCC is a collective of leading youth sports organizations committed to training one million coaches in youth development techniques by 2025.
Funded by the Susan Crown Exchange, partner organizations have created evidence-based training programs that teach coaches how to meet youth development needs. From mental health and trauma-informed practice to Coaching Gen Z and mentoring underserved youth, these programs equip coaches with knowledge, techniques, and principles to help youth thrive, on and off the field.
LiFEsports, in partnership with the OHSAA, launched Coach Beyond – a series of 10 education sessions designed to ensure coaches and athletic directors are ready to “coach beyond” the X’s and O’s and teach life and leadership skills through sport.
