Partnerships with Schools and Youth Sports Organizations


Watch this video featuring Julie Foudy, captain of the Women's World Cup-winning U.S. National Women's Soccer Team, to learn about PCA workshops and Partnerships. Then, you can request information from a PCA representative about partnering your school or youth sports organization with PCA. 

A PCA Partnership includes a customized mix of live workshops, online courses, books, access to the PCA Partners website, and ongoing follow-up communications. Many of our Partners report benefits, such as:

  • Increased retention rates and satisfaction among players, coaches, and officials
  • Increased participation in coach, parent, and leadership education 
  • Increased number of inquiries from other organizations about “how you do things” 
  • Increased comments in the community about how classy, kid-friendly, and well-run the organization is.

Other elements of a PCA Partnership include:

  • Books by PCA Founder Jim Thompson complement the workshops and online courses. Most are 60-80 pages, including thought-provoking case studies and scenarios, and can be read in about two hours.
  • The password-protected PCA Partners Website and follow-up communications such as e-mail newsletters, combine with the workshops, courses and books to create a systems-based approach that helps youth and high school sports leaders, coaches, parents and athletes build and benefit from a positive, character-building youth sports environment.
That environment helps your school or organization attract and retain the coaches, parents and players necessary to make your programs run smoothly...with fewer on-field conflicts, better coach-parent relationships and avid support for the program itself from all involved and the community at large.
