2011 NCC Program
June 22-25, 2011 Antlers Hilton Colorado Springs, Colorado conference program Colorado Springs, Colorado June 22-25, 2011 On behalf of the United States Olympic Committee (USOC), I would like to welcome you to Colorado Springs and the 2011 National Coaching Conference. It is exciting to have this event in the city that has been the headquarters of the US Olympic Committee for over 30 years and to have you here not only to learn and network, but also to celebrate the success of many of our country’s best coaches. The USOC and the USA Coaching Coalition have a strong tradition for providing cutting edge sport performance information in the United States. For the past eleven years, the USOC has been a proud partner with 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) to present this annual event to coaches and coaching educators in the US – a unique gathering of sport professionals from all levels of competitions and in all sports. Coaching is a critical link not only for our continued excellence in the Olympic Games, but also for the fun, safe and enjoyable participation of people of all ages in the magic of sporting activities. As coaches, coach educators and performance experts we all share a common goal to help each person become continuously better – both on and off the field of play – and to provide life-long experience that positively impacts individuals and teams – now and in the future. For 2011, we have expanded the programming to target not only coaching education professionals – and future professionals – but also high performance specialists and coaches themselves.
