VOL 31 issue 1 - Spring 2026

On February 16th, the state of North Carolina officially adopted the Tomorrow’s 25 Coaching Fellowship for the 2026-27 academic year. The implementation of this work will be done in partnership with the North Carolina Coaches Association (NCCA). Developed to identify and invest in emerging leaders in interscholastic athletics, the Tomorrow’s 25 Coaching Fellowship is a year-long leadership development experience that annually selects 25 high school coaches who demonstrate both professional excellence and a deep commitment to developing young people beyond competition. “We’re excited to become a part of this innovative approach to coaches’ education,” said Phil Weaver, Executive Director of the NCCA. “High school coaching in North Carolina will improve at a faster rate as we develop another 25 coaching leaders each year.” “What’s happening in North Carolina signals something bigger than expansion,” said Dr. Hunter Taylor, founder of Tomorrow’s 25. “It reflects a shared belief that coaching leadership matters - not just for wins and losses, but for the health of our schools and communities. Partnering with the North Carolina Coaches Association allows this work to take root in a way that’s sustainable and deeply connected to the state.” East-West All-Star Honor Roll is Online!
