CONVENTION UPDATE: A Glance At Throws Symposiums In 2025

NEW ORLEANS – Coaching education has long been one of the pillars on which the annual USTFCCCA Convention has been built.

This year is no different, as we’ll bring you 24 technical symposiums spread across the four disciplines: endurance, jumps, sprints/hurdles/relays, and throws. That means there will be six coaches per each of the four disciplines to share their knowledge with their colleagues.
