by JamieMiMentor Coaching Supporting National Sports Group To Enhance Coach Education And Development
MiMentor is delighted to announce its latest partnership with National Sports Group (NSG), as they join several other organizations in adopting the MiMentor Coaching Platform to support the development of their clubs and coaches.
NSG, based in New Jersey, oversees numerous soccer clubs and organisations in the USA, including STA Soccer, Princeton Soccer Academy, and Oakwood Soccer Club.
As part of this exciting partnership, NSG will strengthen its education and learning initiatives throughout its network of clubs using MiMentor’s cutting-edge online education platform and coach development content library.
This relationship with MiMentor underlines NSG’s commitment to providing coaches and staff with the tools and resources needed to excel in their roles and ultimately provide better coaching opportunities for the hundreds of soccer players within their clubs.
“We are delighted to announce our new partnership with MiMentor, which will greatly enhance our coach development programs at NSG,” said Matthew Farrell, Head of Coach Education and Recruitment at NSG.
“Initially, we will utilize MiMentor’s expert-led content on their world-leading education platform to deliver Continuous Professional Development (CPD) sessions. MiMentor’s extensive library, covering key areas such as technical and tactical soccer development, fitness and conditioning, sports psychology, leadership, and mentoring, will play a pivotal role in advancing our coaches’ expertise.”
He added: “Looking ahead, we plan to implement MiMentor to onboard new coaches and guide their professional development journeys.
“With its first-class CPD courses, session plans, coaching guides, and digital tools, MiMentor will enable us to elevate coaching effectiveness and ultimately enhance athlete performance across NSG.”
NSG’s plans to implement MiMentor to onboard new coaches will help facilitate and support their professional development journeys, similar to the many clubs and organisations currently working with MiMentor to raise coaching standards.
Along with first-class coach CPD courses, MiMentor’s digital platform offers a wealth of resources, session plans, coaching guides, and tools to enhance coaching effectiveness and athlete performance.
Their latest addition to supporting clubs and coaches is the MiMentor ‘Groups’ functionality, similar to a social media platform, allowing members to communicate and share content and messages across their network.
James Baker, managing director of MiMentor, is pleased to welcome NSG as the latest soccer organization to join the platform and benefit from its content library.
“We’re thrilled to announce our partnership with National Sports Group, a collaboration we’ve been diligently working on for some time as we’ve closely engaged with their team,” said Baker.
“At MiMentor, we understand the importance of deliberate and regular coach education and its significant impact on the continued professional development of any team. We know this will contribute to nurturing positive environments where players can thrive and succeed.”
He added: “Since the start of the partnership earlier this year, we have launched several CPD courses on the NSG Education Platform, including the Reflective Practice course, a fundamental skill for all coaches.
“This course was developed in collaboration with our coach mentor, Sarah McQuade. This partnership showcases the valuable resources available through the MiMentor library, benefiting any sports organization.”
Whether coaches and clubs are seeking guidance on the technical side of the game or on softer skills such as communication or mentoring, MiMentor provides a comprehensive solution tailored to the needs of individual coaches, clubs, leagues, or other sporting organizations.
