Bryn Athyn College's mission is to enhance students' civil, moral, and spiritual lives as well as to contribute to human spiritual welfare. Athletics provides a distinctive experience and meaningful learning opportunities for our students.
As educators, coaches, and leaders, we are given the unique opportunity to be in close connection with young people where we can have a significant impact on their lives. Our greatest responsibility as coaches is as teachers that help to build meaningful relationships while developing the leaders for tomorrow. Our athletic department is committed to engaging students with our institutional mission and preparing them for a life of positive influence and impact. As an athletic department, we have developed a leadership enhancement curriculum that will challenge, develop, and engage our students in meaningful ways to prepare them for leadership in the classroom, the campus community, and in the athletic arena.
To this end, our coaches will be participating in a five week leadership training program, led by head men's basketball coach Sean Westerlund. Each coach will be challenged to think critically about how to more effectively educate student athletes, develop processes for sustainable development, examine interpersonal and intrapersonal capabilities with the ultimate goal of developing a leadership curriculum that is specific and individualized for their team.
