ABOUT MILLION COACHES CHALLENGE

We, the organizations of the Million Coaches Challenge, believe that coaches who are well-versed i evidence-based youth development and skill building practices are essential to creating quality sports experiences that support young people's physical, mental and emotional needs.

Creating a positive environment through these practices leads to more youth enjoyment, learning growth, and a desire to continue playing sports. We are committed to a system of accessible, evidence-based training for youth coaches in youth development practices that will raise the bar for the youth sports experience.

USA Fencing, USA Weightlifting and USA Triathlon have developed coach training modules focused on Effectively Coaching Generation Z, Creating A Culture of Belonging, and Elevating Your Coaching IQ. Additionally, these courses will be offered to all NGBs (at no cost) to incorporate into their Coach Education programs.
