The Hillel Athletic Program serves boys and girls in an ever growing 6- elementary school league. The program offers a combination of intramural and interscholastic play between schools in the sports of basketball, football, volleyball, soccer and baseball for 4th, 5th, 6th, 7th, and 8th grade students.

The program is guided by three main goals:

1. Identify, develop and support each positive character traits within each student-athlete

2. Develop sound fundamentals in each individual sport

3. Maximize participation of all student-athletes

Positive Coaching Alliance (PCA) is a nonprofit organization founded at Stanford University with the mission to transform youth sports so sports can transform youth. PCA was created to transform the culture of youth sports to give all young athletes the opportunity for a positive, character-building experience.

We have three national goals:

1. Replace the "win-at-all-cost" model of coaching with the Double-Goal Coach®, who wants to win but has a second, more important, goal of using sports to teach life lessons;

2. Teach youth sports organization leaders how to create an organizational culture in which Honoring the Game is the norm; and

3. Spark and fuel a "social epidemic" of Positive Coaching that will sweep this country.

There are many people in this nation who want to change the culture of youth sports, but they do not feel equipped to do so. Positive Coaching Alliance has developed practical tools to change the culture of youth sports and is making them available to coaches, parents, league organizers and others who will fire this movement.
