Success stories
Here at Positive Coaching Alliance in New England we are hopeful that 2021 will be a wondrous year. As we plan to emerge from the pandemic ready to play and as we gain a deeper understanding of social and racial inequity, sports can help bring us together. Sports are a place where we come together to learn, grow, compete, and find joy.
Like the batter here who is hopeful because she has practiced, trained, and prepared for this moment, all of us here at PCA are hopeful, and we are ready. We have practiced, trained, and prepared for this moment so that we can help the many young athletes sidelined by COVID, as well as those who are back at sports, become better athletes and better people. We have practiced, trained, and prepared for this moment so that we can help coaches who are evolving and striving to coach with greater awareness of issues of race and equity.
In 2021, at Positive Coaching Alliance we are hopeful and we are ready to continue to lift people up, to inspire them to be their best selves, on and off the field.
