The National High School Strength Coaches Association exists to Educate, Equip, and Empower Coaches to make a lasting impact on student-athletes’ lives. We are committed to developing trustworthy, knowledgeable, effective, passionate, and transformational coaches.
NHSSCA Mission
We Saw A Need
In the summer of 2016, several high school coaches met to discuss the unique needs of our profession. The current state of high school strength coaches has left us disconnected, devalued and underserved. Although there are a few organizations and associations serving the field of strength and conditioning, none were dedicated solely to the high school strength coach. It was decided that there was a better path. The National High School Strength Coaches Association (NHSSCA) was created to allow us to grow as true professionals and the movement began.
NHSSCA Vision

NHSSCA's High School Strength Coach Certification
The HSSCC
Elevating High School Strength & Conditioning Nationwide
By empowering high school strength coaches, sport coaches, educators, and students with the HSSCC, we’re paving the way for superior training programs, ensuring student-athletes reach their full potential while enhancing a coach’s ranging needs and abilities.
Similarly, the HSSCC helps the NHSSCA promote high school strength and conditioning so athletic and academic administrators, school officials, and national educational organizations gain the inherent value of a qualified high school strength and conditioning coach.

Day
Family Days are complimentary 3-hour mini-clinics, blending insightful lectures with hands-on sessions, and concluding with a coaches’ roundtable. It’s a prime opportunity to network with fellow coaches, teachers, administrators, and more. Plus, for non-members, it’s a glimpse into why for us, #Family is more than just a hashtag.
