Positive Coaching Alliance works toward developing every youth and high school athlete into a Triple-Impact Competitor®, committed to impacting sport on three levels by improving oneself, teammates and their sport as a whole. The ideal of the Triple-Impact Competitor is advanced in PCA workshops and online courses, and it is the central theme of PCA Founder Jim Thompson's book,Elevating Your Game: Becoming a Triple-Impact Competitor.
This printable form contains suggestions for how student-athletes can improve themselves as performers and people.
