The 2021 ABCA Convention Youth Coaches Session clinics have been added to the ABCA Video Library for all ABCA members that registered for the 77th annual ABCA Convention in the ABCA Video Library! The convention, which ran virtually from January 6-10, 2021, featured over 50 coaching education seminars across the General Session, Youth Coaches Session, Expo Theater and Hot Stove Panel Discussions. The General Session clinic videos were released to convention attendees yesterday.
Anyone that registered for the 2021 ABCA Convention can watch these 12 clinics, which are tailored specifically for coaches of youth-level teams up to age 14 years old, on-demand in the ABCA Video Library. Each video also includes the post-clinic Question and Answer Forum that was conducted live during the convention following each presenter's clinic. These presentations were presented by GameChanger.
In addition to the General Session and Youth Coaches Session clinics that attendees can already access, 2021 ABCA Convention participants will be able to watch the
Hot Stove Panel Discussions by this Friday, January 22. All members that registered for the convention can also view the 10 Expo Theater presentations on-demand via the
Virtual ABCA Convention platform, which is accessible until Monday, February 1. All Expo Theater presentations will also be available in the ABCA Video Library after February 1.
Any member that did not participate in the 2021 ABCA Convention will have free access to the on-demand clinics beginning Monday, May 24 as part of their 2020-21 ABCA membership.
This new membership benefit for the 2020-21 membership year was introduced in June 2020. In the past, all convention attendees received on-demand video access while members that did not attend could purchase the set of videos for $300. All members currently have access to all
past ABCA Convention clinics and
2020 ABCA Barnstormers Regional clinics in the ABCA Video Library.
If you are a current member that did not attend the Virtual Convention but would like access to the 2021 videos now, please call (336) 821-3140 to retroactively register. If you are not yet signed up for 2020-21 ABCA membership, you can still
sign up for membership and will receive access to all past convention clinic videos immediately and will be able to watch the 2021 convention videos beginning May 24.
