Each year during the American Football Coaches Association (AFCA) Convention, The Trust hosts Coaching for Success, a professional development workshop designed exclusively for former NFL players who are coaching or interested in pursuing a coaching career.
Rooted in The Trust's commitment to continuous growth and development, Coaching for Success helps Former players build the knowledge, skills, and relationships needed to succeed in the coaching profession. Whether you're exploring your first opportunity, advancing through the ranks, or leading a program, the workshop provides valuable insights from respected coaches and industry leaders while connecting you with fellow Former Players pursuing similar goals.
