We went over 1,000,000 unique users on this website this year!
I’m blown away by that. I started this website with 10 simple pages in 2011 after getting fired by a new Superintendent at the private school I was serving at as the Athletic Director and Head Football Coach. (One of my favorite articles I’ve ever written: “You’ve Been Fired, Now What?” Read about my story of turning being fired in to something great!)
I built the site just to be able to send out to school leaders as I was looking for a new job. Six years later, and this website has led me to some INCREDIBLE opportunities in the world of football, coaching and athletics. I’m grateful for the business that I launched, Eight Laces Consulting, that grew out of launching this website.
Each year, it is neat to look back at what we’ve done. As a person, as a coach, as a family, as a team, as a teacher, no matter what you are or where you are, it’s important to look back. To celebrate your successes, and evaluate your failures.

Looking back at CoachFore.org over the year, I wanted to share with you the Top 10 Articles of 2017! I hope that you’re able to learn a little something from one or more of them.
