Every dollar we make will fund guest speakers to educate our coaches about important areas for growth in our community such as team leadership and culture building, social and emotional learning, and off-ice training and nutrition. SJHA looks to provide coaches with four workshops on different topics to support their learning and teaching throughout the season. We are investing in our growth mindset! And we need your help!
