Using the GROW approach, coaches leave coaching Clinics with the preparation required to build a team that succeeds on the field, and to guide young athletes to mature into people with strong moral fiber and healthy lifestyles. Results show that the Play Like a Champion Today approach to coaching leads to an improved sport experience for all: 

  • Children are happier in sports and stay active for more years in sports.
  • Coaches gain an increased sense of pride in the work they are doing as ministers of the church.
  • Parents report greater satisfaction with their child's youth sports experience.
  • Officials feel respected and appreciated.
  • League administrators enjoy the benefits of having professionally prepared coaches committed to the distinct Catholic mission of their league.
