Do You Have the Leaders You Need to Succeed?

Develop responsible team leaders who will help you win more games - and prevent embarrassing and harmful problems like underage drinking and hazing.

Designed by captains, coaches, and administrators, the Team Captains Network provides your student-athletes with the tools they need to be effective leaders for your team/school.

The TeamCaptainsNetwork.com transforms leadership training from a one time event into a powerful, ongoing educational support system - making it the ideal resource for today's busy, internet-immersed leaders.

"I just wanted so say THANKS for everything on the Team Captains Network and your advice via email. I am a captain for our college softball team and have applied so much of what I've learned through the network already in so many different ways. I look forward to continue improving my leadership skills as we start our season next month. I can't speak highly enough of you and what you have done!" St. Scholastica Student-Athlete

"I just wanted to let you know that I appreciate this program that you set up. I have been completing all of the E-Courses, and taking notes... I am getting a lot from the stories and this program has really helped me and made me realize a lot of things. I know my flaws and I am really going to work on improving them for this coming season. Again thank you so much!" Jacksonsville State Student-Athlete

"My leaders love the Team Captains Network website and the regular leadership emails." Cheri Harrer, Baldwin-Wallace Women's Basketball Coach
