The mission of Positive Coaching Alliance (PCA) is to transform youth sports so sports can transform youth. Achieving this mission depends on providing coaches, parents and youth sports organization leaders with "bite-size insights." Because most youth coaches are volunteers for whom time to become an expert is scarce, it is critical to create a distribution mechanism to translate important insights from academic research into a user-friendly format that can easily be put into practice by volunteer coaches.

PCA - Emotional Tank Script
We want to be able to play our best all of the time. To play our best we have to keep our “Emotional Tanks” full. What is an Emotional Tank? Well, it is like a gas tank in a car. When it is full, we run well, but when it is empty, we can’t go very far.

PCA - Honoring the Game Script
Sportsmanship is important, but in order to get the most out of this soccer season, I want you to honor the game. We say the Honoring the Game goes to the ROOTS of the matter — R-O-O-T-S. Each letter in ROOTS stands for an important part of soccer that we must respect. The R stands for Rules. The first O is for Opponents. The next O is for Officials. T is for Teammates, and the S is for Self.

Please help us evaluate how well we did this season by telling us about your child’s coach. Our organization is committed to Positive Coaching Alliance ideals.
