USSA member clubs have an important responsibility with athletes, parents and coaches to instill self-confidence, self esteem and character. The athletes represent our sports, our industry and our nation. This is a very important responsibility.
USSA Education is devoted to developing materials and services to support the clubs as they strive to educate their members in the areas of: fitness, fundamentals, tactics, psychology, nutrition, and sports medicine. As the USSA Center of Excellence becomes available USSA, in partnership with USSA Member Clubs, will conduct educational seminars focusing on critical issues with the clubs.
The links below provide USSA clubs with information and resources to help athletes, parents and coaches.
