Author Biography
STEVE CLELAND is a seasoned entrepreneur, certified public accountant (CPA), certified fraud examiner (CFE), and sought-after speaker. Steve's greatest passion is coaching sports. Steve has been coaching recreational, All-Star, club, travel, and rep teams in several sports over the last thirty years. In the last decade alone, Steve coached over five hundred kids on more than fifty teams in several sports, ran 1,250+ practices, and coached over eight hundred games.
Blending the business/entrepreneurial world with his extensive on-field experience, Steve has mastered creating an environment for success where kids, parents, and coaches thrive. Steve firmly believes that success in youth sports is about more than winning a game or a championship: it's about maximizing the potential of every player, parent, and coach on your team; kids having fun playing a sport with their friends; and developing a sense of selflessness, grit, confidence, and respect for the game, teammates, and opponents. Steve is now sharing his approach and his experiences, as well as the successes, setbacks, failures, and the related lessons learned along the way. Steve's mission is to positively impact as many kids' lives as possible ... one coach at a time.Pay with
