RK: \u201c<\/em>The focus of the NSCAA is on coaching education. With that being said, we use social media as a tool for coaches to communicate with each other. There is a huge amount of information to be shared between coaches from all over the United States and we hope that social media can help facilitate those conversations between coaches.<\/p>\n

Coaches want to talk x\u2019s and o\u2019s, practice plans, skills and drills and give match recaps and analysis. We have not yet gone into training coaches specifically on the uses of social media, but it is a topic that I definitely am interested in exploring further (personally speaking!).<\/p>\n

The one-on-one interaction that is key in social media has been at the core of the NSCAA mission since we were founded in 1941. We embrace peer-to-peer learning\u00a0and collaboration in our coaching education and development so for us, we\u2019ve been able to extend those ideals easily into the realm of social media.\u201d<\/p><\/blockquote>\n
