Coaches and Teens - Do Coaches Understand?
During the past ten years of leadership training, over 1,500 exceptional student athletes throughout the U.S. have discussed at great length their relationships 
with their coaches and what they believe can be done to improve it.
Thus, Coaches Conference has been created. These teenagers asked Ken Braid & Bill Walker to go to high schools and express their concerns, strive for improvements and emphasize how influential coaches are in their lives.
High School coaches across America are benefiting from Coaches Conference. This unique workshop for high school coaches guarantees to build and strengthen relationships between coaches and their athletes. This workshop is not about x's and o's or how to run a better offense or defense. This workshop is about much more.
Question: "Coaches, do you understand your atheletes?"
According to USA Today Teen Values Survey, 272,400 teens say, "No". The same survey asked, "Who understands you the most?" 42% said their friends, 28% said their parents, 10% said their Boyfriend/Girlfriend, 8% said no one, 5% said their siblings, 1% said their teachers, 0% said "Coaches", and 5% said "Other".
