2026 NHSSCA Wisconsin Family Day

You shouldn't have to coach alone.

Good coaches face real challenges. Great conversations help us work through them. Join fellow Wisconsin coaches and athletic leaders for a relaxed morning of honest discussion, shared ideas, and professional connection.

No presentations. No pressure. Just good company.

Saturday, November 14, 2026 10:00 AM – 12:00 PM CT Lincoln High School · Manitowoc, WI

Organized by Charlie Woida of Pacelli Catholic Schools · Open to strength coaches, sport coaches, PE teachers, and athletic leaders.

Why Spend Your Saturday Morning With Us?

Good people.
Real conversations.

You don't need another presentation telling you how to do your job. Sometimes, the most valuable professional development happens when coaches simply get together, share what they're experiencing, and learn from one another. That's what Wisconsin Family Day is about.

01

Talk With Coaches Who Get It.

Spend time with people who understand the challenges of working with developing athletes, managing programs, and making the most of limited time and resources.

02

Share Ideas Without a Microphone.

No formal lectures or slide decks. Bring your questions, share what is working at your school, and hear how other coaches approach similar challenges.

03

Build Relationships Beyond Your School.

Meet coaches and athletic leaders from across the area. Build connections with people you can exchange ideas with, ask questions of, and learn from long after Family Day ends.

04

Enjoy a Morning That's Worth Your Time.

Two hours of roundtable conversation, followed by a lunch social. No packed agenda, no presentation marathon, and no pressure. Just meaningful time with people who care about the same work.

You don't need another presentation. You need a room full of people who understand.

NHSSCA 1 More Campaign — Invite one more coach to Wisconsin Family Day

One invitation can introduce another coach to an entire community.

The NHSSCA 1 More Campaign

Don't just come. Bring 1 More.

You know a coach who should be in this room. Maybe they've never attended an NHSSCA event. Maybe they don't even know this community exists. Wisconsin Family Day is the perfect opportunity to change that.

Who Could You Invite?

  • A fellow strength coach
  • A sport coach at your school
  • A PE teacher
  • An athletic director
  • A young or emerging coach
  • Someone new to NHSSCA

More perspectives. Better conversations. Stronger coaching community.

Who Should Attend?

If you help athletes grow, this room is for you.

You don't need a certain job title, years of experience, or an existing NHSSCA membership to be part of the conversation. If you care about developing young athletes and improving the high school experience, we want you in the room.

01

Strength & Conditioning Coaches

Connect with coaches navigating programming, athlete development, facility limitations, and the daily realities of running a high school strength program.

02

Sport Coaches

Exchange ideas about preparing athletes, coordinating training demands, building team culture, and supporting performance throughout the year.

03

Physical Education Teachers

Join conversations about movement, physical literacy, student engagement, and helping young people build lifelong habits around activity.

04

Athletic Directors & Administrators

Hear perspectives from the coaches doing the work and explore ways to strengthen communication, collaboration, and athletic development within your school.

05

Students & Emerging Professionals

Meet experienced professionals, ask questions about the field, and gain a clearer understanding of what working with high school athletes actually looks like.

06

Athletic Performance Professionals

If you work with developing athletes in private facilities or other performance settings, bring your perspective and learn from coaches working directly in schools.

Never been to an NHSSCA event? Even better.

Wisconsin Family Day is an easy place to start. Show up, meet a few people, join the conversation, and experience the NHSSCA community firsthand.

As Head Strength Coach at Pacelli Catholic High School and Wisconsin State Director for the NHSSCA, Charlie Woida is bringing coaches together for a different kind of professional development experience.

Rather than organizing a traditional speaker-driven clinic, Charlie is hosting a roundtable discussion and social gathering designed to encourage honest conversations, the exchange of practical ideas, and stronger relationships among Wisconsin coaches.

The Goal Is Simple.

Bring coaches into the same room, give everyone an opportunity to participate, and build connections that continue long after Family Day.

2026 NHSSCA Wisconsin Family Day

Good people.
Real conversations. Put yourself in the room.

Some of the most valuable coaching conversations don't happen during presentations. They happen when coaches come together, share what's working, discuss real challenges, and learn from one another. Join Charlie Woida and fellow Wisconsin coaches at Lincoln High School in Manitowoc for a morning of roundtable discussion, followed by a lunch social focused on connection and community.
