PCA and Little League Renew, Expand
Partnership
A message from the
Positive Coaching Alliance:
Positive Coaching Alliance (PCA) and Little League International
renewed their National Partnership agreement because of the immense
mutual success in the first year of their partnership. Both PCA and
Little League benefit from a complementary approach to building
character in youth athletes.
The partnership provides Little League the chance to offer the
Little League Double-Goal CoachTM Online Course, which helps Little
League Coaches become Double-Goal Coaches, focused on the first
goal, winning, and the second, more-important goal, teaching life
lessons through baseball and softball
PCA, meanwhile, is proud to accept into its movement to transform
youth sports, thousands of new Double-Goal Coaches from such a
respected organization as Little League Baseball and Softball. We
know our partnership is on the right track when we receive
testimonials such as the following:
“On a scale of one to five, I would rate the online course a five.
It took about two hours to complete. The most beneficial parts of
the course were the links for areas like positive coaching scripts,
effort goals, etc. The Double-Goal Coach approach is very
appropriate for Little League and all youth sports.
“I like the effort goals. In particular, looking for the 3 B's (move
to Ball, cover a Base and Back up) every time the ball is hit to my
team (7-8 year olds). It is a more detailed, compared to my saying,
"Everyone on the field should be moving every time the ball is hit.’
Nice Job!”
-- Bill Sickinger, Simsbury Little League
"I was at a tournament in South City and one of the managers came up
to me afterward and said, 'You've got the model coaches and model
players. They never hang their heads. They never cuss. They never
argue with the umpires. How do you do that?' I said, 'Positive
Coaching Alliance.'
-- Steve Sutter, Foster City (CA) Little League
