The USATF Level 1 program is an outstanding way to prepare for the upcoming track and field seasons, make connections with other coaches, and get inspired to help your athletes reach their goals.  Please consider taking advantage of this professional development opportunity.  Also, be sure to let other coaches know that these schools are available in their area this winter.
