Hey Coach Summit,

About the event
Coaching changed in 2021. NIL, transfer portals, and a post-pandemic mental health reality made whole-athlete development a baseline expectation. Most coaches were never trained for that job. They're figuring it out alone.
The Hey Coach Summit exists to close that gap. On August 6, 2026, we're bringing together 20 speakers: World Series champions, Division I athletic directors, sport psychologists, and leaders in athlete development; for a single day focused on one question: how do you form athletes as people, not just players?
Every talk is 7–10 minutes. No filler. Coaches, athletic directors, and sports parents attend the live premiere free, then purchase on-demand access to keep the full library. The format is built for the people who need it most: coaches with 20 free minutes, not 20 free hours.
Why should you sponsor?
Sponsoring the Summit puts your brand in front of this audience at the moment they're investing in becoming better. Also, it attaches your name to a growing movement.
Nolan ReckerNolan (Event Creator) has spent his career at the intersection of formation, leadership, and human development as a pastor, educator, community health specialist, and coach. That journey gave him a front-row seat to what it actually takes to help people grow: consistent relationship, intentional structure, and someone who believes in who they are becoming.
He is also a husband and father who has experienced the chaos of youth sports from every angle as a parent, coach, and club leader. That experience made one thing clear. Coaches are doing some of the most important developmental work in a young person's life, and the tools they have been given do not reflect that.
That is why he co-founded Hey Coach. Not to build another team management app, but to create a platform worthy of the role coaches actually play. One that brings communication, culture, and athlete formation together in one place.
Nolan lives in Illinois and believes the best coaching question is not "Did we win?" but "Did we build better people?"
