360ydc

Our 360ydc team use creative teaching and learning methods to help young people see a future of possibilities. Beyond athletic development, we raise awareness, encourage autonomy and interdependence, foster creativity, value critical thinking and encourage action and reflection. Our team ensures enhanced interaction, contextualized learning and personal feedback to accommodate young people with varying age, knowledge and abilities. We believe leadership is defined as anyone who simply wants to make a difference in the world, seeks learning opportunities, models honesty, knows when to lead and when to follow, works interdependently ("we" mind set) and sincerely inspire the best in others. Our programs help to encourage and build healthy internal and external youth developmental assets (or positive values). These values include: humility, generosity, justice, courage, wisdom, honesty, discipline, integrity, responsibility, family and community service. We take a balanced and integrated (360 degree) approach to athletics and youth development. 360ydc leaders teach what all good parents, educators and coaches have taught for millennia. We strive to teach these important and fundamental principles with creativity, integrity and passion. Our programs are not just about the "What" (delivering outcomes) but, rather the "Why" (inspiring purpose) and the "How" (actions based on universal human values). Our team members model the way and encourage the heart. They hold a wealth of experience and accomplishments in the fields of education, athletics, communications, leadership, health, youth and community development.
