2nd Annual Philadelphia Coaches’ Conference

Posted by Drexel University on March 7, 2016

We are happy to announce Drexel University and the Center for Hospitality and Sport Management will host the 2nd Annual Philadelphia Coaches’ Conference on Tuesday, May 17th, 2016. This is a one-day event focused on coaches of youth, scholastic, collegiate, and professional athletes. In addition to the keynote presentations, panel presentations, and breakout sessions, we will be presenting Coach of the Year Awards in each of the following categories – youth, SBYD (sports-based youth development) (new this year), scholastic, collegiate, and Olympic/professional.

This is a wonderful professional development opportunity for your coaches and we ask that you consider becoming a sponsor of the conference to offer your coaches the opportunity to attend this year’s event. Sponsorships are reasonably priced as our goal is to have as many coaches participate as possible. We believe in this opportunity for coaches to connect and learn from one another and have priced our packages below cost to encourage a large audience. We received overwhelming support after last year’s conference. All of the coaches surveyed said they would attend again and hoped their administrators would support sending more of their coaches.

Sponsorship opportunities (essentially professional development packages for groups of coaches) are attached for your review. Each package includes a number of registrations for your coaches. Also new this year, we are pleased to announce a 25% discount on the bronze and silver level packages for SBYD organizations as a reflection of our commitment to your goals and to encourage greater representation of SBYD coaches. This is a discount off the prices reflected in the attached sponsorship deck. Once you commit to a certain level, we will invoice you at the discounted rate.

If you would like to sponsor the conference and send your coaches, but don’t see a package that fits your requirements, please do not hesitate to contact us to create a package tailored to your needs. Please let us know as soon as possible if you would like to be part of our team for this year’s conference! Registration options will close once we have sold out.
