You can also attend useful workshops and clinic sessions. Sessions are led by high school and college coaches who understand the realities of the 13-week high school season, and the challenges that most high school coaches face due to limited resources (time, assistant coaches, facilities, etc).
We've put together a schedule that includes sessions in each major event area for novice and experienced athletes. Clinicians and WSTFCA work sessions include: Event Specific Convention Sessions and WSTFCA Clinic Sessions. If you are interested in presenting to your fellow coaches, please email Daunte Gouge.
