Coaches

Coaches are welcome to join us for WNDI.

· YOU ARE DIRECTLY ENGAGED IN LEARNING
Coaches can participate in all of the labs, lectures and activities that students engage in. Learn about the topic; hear about the latest strategies in policy and LD debate.

· EVIDENCE FOR YOUR TEAM!
You will receive an email with ALL of the evidence produced at the WNDI. This is sent out at the end of the camp.

· WORK ON DIRECTING YOUR PROGRAM
Coaches can also work on class syllabi, team travel schedules, coaching of arguments, philosophical approaches to running a debate team, tips for saving money, ways to promote your squad, recruiting tips, running tournaments, and much more. You meet with Jim Hanson, winner of 3 coach-of-the-year awards (National, Pepperdine, and WSFA). Jim is ready and eager to help you with your team’s issues and he has many, many materials he can give you to help in addition to just talking with him to glean helpful hints from his 27+ years of coaching experience.

· 1, 2, OR 3 WEEKS—YOU CHOOSE.
Join us for one, two, or three weeks—indeed, whatever days work for you. We recommend attending the first week but its whatever you would like. Contact us with the day you'd like to start and the day you wish to end. We will work around your schedule (although note that our airport shuttle service occurs only on certain dates).

· LOW FEES
Click here to see our reasonable costs. If you judge during the camp, your fees are reduced typically $50 per week. Note that judging means you are likely to miss morning policy lectures. LOWER YOUR FEES: $100 OFF YOUR FEE FOR EACH STUDENT FROM YOUR SCHOOL THAT ATTENDS WNDI, UP TO $300 OFF. If you wish, you can attend for three days only and do so free if you have three or more students attending WNDI.

· PRIVATE HOUSING
Housing: You have your own room. Our bathrooms are setup for one person to use at a time so you maintain your privacy and you will almost definitely be in a separate section of the residence hall from the students.

“Thank you for a great (and productive) two weeks! I feel much more confident about my coaching because of your camp.”

“I hope camp went well this year. I missed being there and have definitely felt the difference in preparedness.”

“Thanks again for a wonderful 1 1/2 weeks, I learned a lot, met some great coaches and developed good friendships.”
