Coaches of the future need to be evidence based coaches,
according to Dr. Ronald Quinn, our recent guest on the Way of
Champions Podcast. Join us as we discuss many topics, including why
he chose to focus on youth sports and not coaching professionals,
teaching “positions” versus “positioning”, and the importance of
having a coaching philosophy.
As a coach, Dr. Quinn served as the Xavier University Women's
Soccer Coach from 1993 - 2004 holding a 134 - 95 - 16 record over
the 12 year period, winning two Atlantic-Ten Tournament titles and
qualifying for the conference tournament nine of 12 seasons. Dr.
Quinn has authored, co-authored or provided chapters to seven
soccer coaching books. He has published over 25 articles on various
aspects of youth coaching and has conducted numerous coaching
education programs.
For his work over the past 30 years in coaching education, Dr.
Quinn was awarded the 2006 National Soccer Coaches Association of
America (NSCAA), Youth Long-Term Achievement Award and in 2007
received the US Youth Soccer Dr. Thomas Fleck Excellence in Youth
Coaching Education Award.
