Course Description
In this self-paced course, students will learn the importance of building a solid foundational groundwork based on culture, core values and relationships. Within this culture, students will create a plan that will give the program a clear direction. Students will also learn to implement offensive, defensive and special teams systems that fit the personnel on a yearly basis within a systematic approach. To support this systematic approach, students will learn to set up an individual program with individual roles within the program with clear expectations for all involved. Also, students will learn to create a focused in and out of season plan for success based on the weekly opponent and the identified individual player improvement needs.
