National Coaches Week (NCW) is happening next week, September 14 to 20! This national celebration marks 12 years of recognizing the dedication, passion, and leadership of coaches across Canada.
Coaches play a vital role in shaping athletes’ experiences, helping them grow, build confidence, and develop both on and off the field. NCW is an opportunity to celebrate everything coaches do and recognize the lasting impact they have on their athletes, teams, and communities.
