Coach Summit 2021 goes online - Tickets now available!
Mon 30 Nov 2020
BaseballSoftballUK today announced that the Coach Summit 2021 will be held online starting on Saturday, 30 January 2021.
After last year's highly successful Coach Summit in Milton Keynes, the 2021 summit will be hosted online due to the challenges presented by the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic. This year’s Coach Summit will feature a series of webinars, keynote speeches and workshops aimed at supporting coaches through an ongoing programme of learning opportunities. The format will see sessions spreadover several weeks in order to make sure the widest possible baseball and softball audience has a chance to attend.
The summit will feature keynote speeches, workshops and breakout conversations – with a focus towards baseball and fastpitch softball but will include content of interest for slowpitch coaches as well.
The opening session of the Coach Summit will take place from 3-6 PM on 30 January 2021, and will feature a number of keynote speakers, including Andre Lachance of Baseball Canada, former GB National Baseball Team Manager Liam Carroll, Head Coach Rachel Watkeys of the World-13th ranked GB Women’s Softball Team, and former GB Softball pitching coach and former St. Louis Cardinals coach Tina Whitlock.
New Pricing Structure
With the Coach Summit going online this year, and the launch of the BaseballSoftballUK Development Charter in August 2020 we have made several modifications to the Coach Summit pricing, to increase its accessibility.
The Summit will be free to attend for up to three coaches per chartered club – this includes any club that is a member of the British Baseball and British Softball Federations, and those independent clubs and leagues that have registered to the Development Charter directly. If your club needs more than three spaces, please get in touch. To sign up for the charter, click here.
The summit will also be free to attend for all BSUK licensed coaches – the Development Team will be in contact directly with licensed coaches.
For non-chartered or non-licensed coaches, the price for Coach Summit tickets will be £50 for all 10 sessions. You can also pay per session, with a price of £20 for the Coach Summit opening session on Saturday 30th January, and £10 for every subsequent session.

Watch for future announcements on this website and on BSUK social media, about speakers, themes and specific session topics over the next couple of months. We are busy building up a high-quality programme of sessions, involving many familiar faces and some new and exciting presenters. It will all add up to a great Coach Summit Series to start the new season off in style!
