 The CYO Coaches Orientation is a half-day seminar
that provides assistance and training for coaches. It is designed to inform and develop the Catholic Coach. It consists of
three parts:
1) Philosophy
& Mission – Discusses the CYO sports philosophy of coach as athletic minister. Addresses the Mission Statement
and provides tips on how coaches can create their own mission statement, define a “successful season” and communicate
them effectively, as well as practical tips to manage a CYO team.
2) Sports Medicine & CYO Christian Values – Discusses growth patterns, injuries and youth
development in relation to participating in sports. Addresses the responsibilities and blessings of being a Catholic coach. 3) Coaching from the Heart – Discusses the
importance of being a baptismal coach in light of the current present realities of the American sports culture. Also
gives references and suggestions that give us the freedom to “coach from the heart” both spiritually and practically.
If you are a FIRST YEAR COACH and cannot personally attend Coaches
Orientation prior to the beginning of the sport, you must take the Online Catholic Coaching Essentials
(before coaching at all) AND also attend the next available Coaches Orientation during
the first year of coaching any CYO sport.
