PCA workshops and courses strive to establish these prevailing models in youth and high school sports:
- · The Double-Goal Coach®, whose first goal is winning, and whose second, more-important goal is teaching life lessons through sports
- · The Second-Goal Parent®, who concentrates on life lessons, while letting coaches and athletes focus on competing
- · The Triple-Impact Competitor®, who strives to impact sport on three levels by improving oneself, teammates and the game as a whole.
PCA has the support of elite coaches and athletes on a National Advisory Board, including National Spokesperson and 11-time NBA Champion Coach Phil Jackson.
