Our Mission: To Train and Develop Effective High School Team Leaders and Captains

Too often Team Leaders are elected or selected and given little or no training to be effective leaders. We can't expect athletes to do a great job without providing the skills and strategies necessary to lead their team. Highschoolsportsleader.com was created to take the guess work out of being a Team Leader/Captain. The site is packed with:

  • Streaming Videos
  • Articles
  • Checklists
  • Interviews
  • Interactive resources

By applying the information from this site, students will go from being a Potential Leader to a Powerful and Effective Leader. Highschoolsportsleader.com is an essential asset for training and developing high school team captains throughout the United States.


***This web site utilizes a variety of interactive tools, including audio, video. We have tried to make this material accessible to as many people as possible. If you are having trouble playing our audio or video clips, please CLICK HERE for some troubleshooting tips.
