DAYTONA BEACH, Fla. – Bethune-Cookman head volleyball coach Brittany Williams is one of 54 participants in this week's NCAA Women's Coaching Academy.

Hosted in partnership between WeCOACH and the NCAA, the Academy is a 4-day educational training available to NCAA coaches of all experience levels. The WCA is designed for women coaches who are ready and willing to increase their individual effectiveness by learning advanced skills and strategies that directly affect their personal and team success.

Participants will focus on non-sport specific concepts in an environment that fosters inclusion across the sports community. The Academy is for women coaches at NCAA Division I, II, or III member institutions. Since the first WCA session in 2003, 49 Academies have taken place, producing more than 1,800 graduates. 

"I feel blessed to receive this opportunity and be one of the scholarship recipients for the 50th class," Williams said. "I couldn't wait to get started."
