Marriage & Family Ministry

YOU CAN PLAY A PART
by strengthening coaches on the home front

Running a college basketball program is like being the CEO of a large company. With constant demands on a coach’s time and energy, it’s often their marriage and family that suffer most. In fact, the divorce rate among college coaches is higher than the national average.

If a coach’s home life isn’t strong, then his team can’t function at a higher level.

That’s why Nations of Coaches serves coaches and their spouses – to strengthen their marriages and families.

2021 Marriage Retreats

For Coaches
& Spouses

 

Every year, coaches and their spouses are invited to enjoy the beautiful outdoors, good fellowship and learning, and some much-needed alone time at the WinShape Retreat in Rome, Georgia. This annual event is specifically designed to build into your relationship with your spouse, so your marriage can not only survive, but also thrive, throughout the high-pressured basketball season and beyond.

The retreat is held at the WinShape Retreat Center near Rome, Georgia and is surrounded by forests, meadows, and streams on a 27,000-acre wildlife preserve, about 90 miles from Atlanta.

For Character Coaches
& Spouses

Character Coaches and their spouses also need time to enjoy the beautiful outdoors, good fellowship and learning, and some much-needed alone time at the WinShape Retreat in Rome, Georgia. This annual event is specifically designed to build into your relationship with your spouse, so your marriage can not only survive, but also thrive, throughout the high-pressured basketball season and beyond.

Season of Change / Transition

WE STAND WITH YOU
during the tough seasons of life

“You gotta win. As we know, the leash
in college athletics today is very short.”
–Pastor Scott Brewer, Baylor’s Character Coach
No one knows what it’s really like to be a coach until they’re in the pressure cooker.

There are weeks spent on the road, long nights away from your kids, early morning meetings. Everyone wants a piece of you when you’re the coach, and it’s hard to keep giving.

There’s the pressure of expectation; the pressure to discipline and mold young men, and to be a role model and ambassador for your school. And then there’s the pressure to keep winning!

That’s why Nations of Coaches stands with you in the toughest times, giving you support during job transitions, financial troubles, health problems, and family breakdowns. If you want a helping hand with complete confidentiality, just say the word using the form below.

I would like a Nations of Coaches representative to connect and stand with me during this tough season of life.
