IN PARTNERSHIP WITH
CONFERENCE PROGRAM 2013 NATIONAL COACHING CONFERENCE
WELCOME
On behalf of the USOC I would like to welcome you to Colorado Springs and the 2013 National Coaching Conference. It is exciting to have this event in the Olympic City again, especially on the heels of such a successful performance by our Team USA athletes last summer in London. It is our hope that by hosting the NCC in Colorado Springs you will get a chance to connect more closely to the Olympic Movement and will find time to enjoy the great things this city has to offer. We welcome you and hope that you’ll take advantage of the sites and excitement of the Front Range. The USOC and USA Coaching Coalition members—the National Association for Sport and Physical Education (NASPE), the National Collegiate Athletic Association (NCAA), and the National Federation of State High School Associations (NFHS)—have partnered to host the NCC for the last 13 years and we’re excited to continue to forge not only this partnership through Coaching Education, but additional opportunities to benefit coaches, athletes, and amateur sport in the United States. As coaches, coach educators, and performance experts we share a common goal to help each person become continuously better and to provide life-long experiences that positively impact individuals and teams. Together we can define, and in some cases re-define, best practices and continue to positively advance the science of coaching and to promote the positive influence and impact that coaches have on athlete success. Clearly one of the main objectives for the USOC is to partner with the National Governing Bodies and their constituency to provide a clear path for podium-potential athletes to advance and reach their full capability. We recognize the importance of the early stages of athlete development and the critical role that coaches play not only in developing athlete skills, but in keeping kids in the game and providing encouragement and structure that helps to further each individuals success. Without quality coaching at the youth level, some of our Olympians and Paralympians may never have achieved their dreams. This is why we’re excited about the theme for this year’s conference—Quality Coaches, Quality Sport—based on NASPE’s National Standards for Sport Coaches. This week we’ll share with you information from researchers and practitioners—including some of our Team USA national team coaches—to help you and your staff become as successful as possible at helping athletes find enjoyment and achievement through sport. The USOC is excited to have you here. We look forward to connecting with you and hope that you enjoy this year’s conference. Most sincerely,
Alan Ashley Chief of Sport Performance, United States Olympic Committee
