Founded as a non-profit within the Stanford University Athletic Department in 1998, Positive Coaching Alliance (PCA) has the mission of "transforming youth sports so sports can transform youth." To that end, PCA has conducted more than 7,000 live group workshops nationwide for more than 400,000 youth and high school sports leaders, coaches, parents and athletes. Workshop attendees have helped create a positive, character-building youth sports environment for more than three million youth athletes.
PCA's partnership network includes more than 1,700 youth sports organizations, cities and schools. In 2010, PCA will conduct roughly 1,300 live, group workshops across the U.S., while assisting thousands of other individuals via online workshops at PositiveCoach.org. PCA delivers roughly 50 workshops per year for youth sports organizations and high school sports programs in the Sacramento area.
PCA workshops train coaches to be Double-Goal Coaches®, whose first goal is winning and whose second, more-important goal is teaching life lessons through sports. PCA sports parent workshops cultivate Second-Goal ParentsTM, who focus on life lessons through sports. PCA student-athlete workshops produce Triple-Impact CompetitorsTM, who work to improve themselves, their teammates, and their sport as a whole.
