 Focuses on winning and life lessons for youth athletes

Shorewood Soccer League has established a partnership with Positive Coaching Alliance (PCA) to ensure a positive, character-building experience for all youth athletes in Shorewood Soccer programs.

PCA (www.PositiveCoach.org), a Stanford University-based non-profit organization, conducts workshops for coaches, organizational leaders, and parents involved in schools and sports organizations serving five-to-18-year-old athletes. PCA also provides workshops for high school athletes. “Working with hundreds of youth sports organizations around the United States, PCA has developed practical tools and guidelines to help youth athletes, their coaches and parents get the most out of sports,” said Shorewood Soccer Vice Commissioner and Head of Coaches, Freddy Ponce. “We recognize the tremendous opportunity for character-building sports offers for today’s youth, so we are embracing PCA’s Double-Goal Coach^TM model, where winning is one goal and teaching life lessons is the second, more-important goal.” 

“We are delighted to partner with Shorewood Soccer,” said PCA Executive Director Jim Thompson. “Together, we’ll strive to help their youth athletes take a positive approach to pursuing victories in athletic competition and in life.” The workshops are scheduled to begin this Spring.  For information about the dates and locations, please contact sslheadcoach@shorewoodsoccer.org.
