Any coaches on this forum?

That's another great way to get into coaching. I go to 3 or 4 clinics a year. Others have explained how to get info on your question, but I quoted it because it reminded me of the importance of clinics. Usually, I will get a combined idea from listening to multiple speakers. Most clinics have a board out front posting job openings, as well as resumes of coaches looking for a job. They do down here anyways. We have a volunteer on our staff now because he had posted on the board that he was wanting to volunteer & learn about coaching. As luck would have it, he was only about an hour away & we gave him a shot. The best clinic in this part of the country is coming up in the middle of Dec. World's Gulf Coast Coaching Clinic. They will have around 30 speakers over 3 days, ranging from middle school to FBS. All you have to do is contact them, fill out the form & pay your fee. 3 days at the Beau Rivage casino, networking with fellow coaches, listening to speakers, & maybe a little gambling. I don't get much better.
Seriously though, if you, or anyone is serious about getting into this profession, this is a great source. Good luck & PM me if I can help any of you interested in getting into coaching.

Wow thats awesome. Thanks for the info!

Wish I could coach but in the great Show-Me state you're not allowed to coach HS unless you have 60 credits of college courses. I have been offered football and wrestling spots until they found out I am just short of the required credits. Maybe I should just buck up..... Damn college is expensive!

You can't volunteer to coach or you can't have a paid position on the school staff?
