Steel Sports Coaching System
Building Character & Teaching Life Lessons. The Lasorda Way.
The Steel Sports Coaching System: The Lasorda Way guides how to coach for maximum positive impact by developing the individual on and off the field through building character, strengthening leadership skills and teaching life lessons. At Steel Sports, our proven system provides coaches the tools to not only grow their skills but how to provide a positive experience for their athletes.
The Steel Sports Coaching System is a research-based, proven program developed and designed with over two decades of experience in best practices of coaching, with the goal of creating positive developmental relationships between the athlete and coach.
We put kids first meaning their rights and interests are our foremost concern. We also believe our athletes are kids first and athletes second, and they need the opportunity to be kids first before emerging into adulthood.
Sports is an incredible vehicle to build character, mold future leaders and teach life lessons. The Steel Sports Coaching System teaches kids there is much more to gain from sports than winning and losing.
We provide continuous education to help coaches grow their skills. The Lasorda Way features in-depth online courses, numerous learning modules, a coach development program and coach mentoring on and off the field.
Achieving success is more than just winning championships. At Steel Sports, we set our athletes up to be champions in life by molding strong leaders through character development and work in the community. We strive to provide all youth the opportunity to develop as athletes and as people through education and competition. Our programs promote the overall welfare of youth in the community through charitable and recognition activities, and we provide a pathway to college, internships and employment.
