As the Summer at the Center expands, coaches from around the country have asked to visit the Center to watch our instructors teach students. Over the course of the last several years, coaches have informally experienced the Summer at the Center. This summer, we have decided to expand our program to include the opportunity for coaches to learn from some of the best coaches in the nation.

Coaches who enroll in the program will have the opportunity to spend a weekend with some of the most successful coaches in the country. Either as a resident or a commuter, will learn strategies for developing a successful program, recruiting new students, managing a team, and learning how to coach particular events. In addition to learning general coaching techniques, participants will have the opportunity to watch our veteran instructors in real coaching situations with students. Participants can choose from lectures, small groups, or individual work sessions for observation.

Participants will leave with teaching and research materials as well as access to some of the nation's most successful coaches throughout the season. Learn how to become part of the National Forensic League and keep updated records on your students. If completed on time, participants may be able to leave with a DVD of introductory lectures from our staff that coaches can use to teach their own students.

Our seminar leaders are well respected members of the forensics community who represent programs that include successful LD, Policy, Congress, and Individual Events students.

The following coaches have agreed to participate in the Coaches Seminar:
