Positive Coaching Alliance
The YMCA is partnering with Positive Coaching Alliance to support the training of our coaches. Positive Coaching Alliance (PCA) is a national non-profit organization working to ensure that every youth athlete can have a positive, character-building experience. Youth sports provide an endless procession of teachable moments that can enhance youth’s sense of self, if the adults who work with athletes see themselves as character educators able to take advantage of such learning opportunities. PCA has developed research-based content and a national distribution channel of PCA trainers and partner organizations that is changing the way the game is played and the way youth are enriched, one youth sports organization at a time.
