About Jeffrey Young

With over 15 years of experience in sports education, I have focused on enhancing athletic programs and physical education for students and staff across the sports industry landscape. My areas of expertise are administrative and strategic planning of athletic programs, coach development, aligning athletic programs with institutions' mission and values, and leading change culture. Achievements and Highlights: Strong Retention Rates: Achieved a 68% retention rate among student-athletes, reflecting a high level of satisfaction and engagement with our athletic programs. Growth in Engagement with New Student-athletes: Successfully introduced 38 first-time student-athletes to our program, showcasing an ability to attract fresh interest, and broaden the program's reach. Significant Growth in After-School Activities (ASAs): Achieved a 40% increase in sport-related ASAs, both competitive and recreational, providing students with more diverse opportunities to participate, develop skills, and stay active. Facilitated a 20% increase in student-created ASAs, encouraging student initiative, creativity, and ownership of their extracurricular experiences. I get excited about opportunities where I can take an interdisciplinary approach, integrating sports science to maximize human performance while fostering creativity, independence, and leadership skills in others.
