AFCA Convention

I spent the last few days in Dallas at the American Football Coaches Association (AFCA) convention. The convention is attended be nearly every college coach from DI, DI-AA, DII, DIII, and NAIA along with many High School coaches. The convention is a tremendous opportunity to network and socialize with other coaches. There are speakers daily on every topic from X's & O's, to philosophy, to ethics in coaching, to fund raising. The convention also features a massive exhibit from vendors for every football related product you might need for your program. If you are a coach and are not a member of the AFCA, I encourage you to join. Be sure the check out the AFCA website by clicking the AFCA logo in the right column. Next year the convention is in San Antonio and in Indianapolis in 2012.
