About 360ydc
We believe young people possess tremendous potential to contribute to themselves and wider society. Our camps, leagues, speaking engagements and leadership/life-skills courses inspire and challenge young people from varying backgrounds to unleash this vast potential and to go beyond the “game”. We encourage young people to take initiative, to accept challenge, to seek positive attachments and to live, love, learn and leave a legacy on and off the court (360 degree approach). Our programs deliver a fun, developmental and holistic youth experience - focusing on character development, education and athletic performance. We strive to help young people develop their capacity, to live by strong character, and to value and celebrate the importance of family and community (positive attachments).
360 youth developing capacity (ydc)
Our 360ydc team use creative teaching and learning methods to help young people see a future of possibilities. In addition to character and/or athletic development, we raise awareness, foster creativity, value critical thinking and encourage action and reflection. Our team ensure enhanced interaction, contextualized learning and personal feedback to accommodate young people with varying age, knowledge, skills and abilities.
We believe leadership is defined as anyone who simply wants to make a difference in the world, seeks learning opportunities from positive attachments, models honesty, knows when to lead and when to follow, and inspire the best in others.
Our programs build and encourage healthy internal and external youth developmental assets. These assets include: humility, generosity, justice, courage, wisdom, honesty, discipline, integrity, responsibility, family and community service. We take a balanced and integrated (360 degree) approach to youth and athletic development.
360ydc leaders teach what all good parents, educators and coaches have taught for thousands of years. We strive to teach these important and fundamental principles with creativity, integrity and passion. Our program delivery goals are not just based on the "What" (outcomes) but, also the "Why" (intentions) and the "How" (actions). Our team members model the way and encourage the heart. They hold a wealth of experience and accomplishments in the fields of education, athletics, communications, leadership, health, youth and community development, global awareness and high performance training.
