The Leadership Connection

At Simmons we believe in the importance of leadership and student development. We also believe sports play an important role in students’ lives as well as in teaching leadership skills. Participation in sports develops the abilities to work within teams, meet goals, manage setbacks, accept feedback and be flexible. Through sports activities, students practice the skills of leadership first hand. At the Sharks Field Hockey Camp, we are committed to weaving field hockey and leadership together. Our goal is to teach you how to transfer leadership skills from the field into life!
