COACHING FOR CONSERVATION®

More about COACHING FOR CONSERVATION®

Coaching for Conservation® (C4C) is a fun, innovative curriculum specifically designed to address the important social challenge of protecting wildlife and wildlife habitats. C4C marries football skills to conservation and wildlife messages using games and skills sets inspired by animal coaches and the characteristic behaviors and skills that make those animals successful in the wild. For example, when teaching the importance of teamwork, the wild dog coach illustrates the vital role of cooperation for survival, cheetahs teach the value of speed and agility (fast dribbling and acceleration on the soccer field) and leopards bring lessons of territoriality to the field by learning to play your position while respecting each others. The core messages of respect are infused at every level in every lesson. The program also teaches young adults coaching skills and techniques and emphasizes the importance of health, for them to become mentors to the young people in their communities. Igniting the spark of interest and enthusiasm is the foundation of all successful learning. Our core values chant; "Respect Yourself, Respect Each Other, and Respect Your Environment".
