MEN'S TENNIS: COACH DURON ON WECOACH COUNCIL

WeCOACH announced their 2018-19 Coaches Council members, a selected group of individuals who will help ensure WeCOACH is strategically serving women coaches from all sports and all levels.

"Now in it's fourth year, the Coaches Council is gaining momentum," said WeCOACH executive director Megan Kahn. "I'm really excited about this group of coaches. They routinely exhibit passion and thoughtfulness for the larger coaching profession and I know they will bring forth great ideas."

The sixteen members of the Council represent twelve sports across NCAA Division I, II and III levels, high school, club and two-year colleges. As WeCOACH continues to expand its reach and impact, for the first time the Council includes a strength and conditioning coach. Each Council member serves a two-year term. The terms are staggered to create continuity annually.
