Honorary Coach Program

In an effort to share the student-athlete experience with the campus community, the Student Success Center and the Athletic Department have developed the Honorary Coach Program for Faculty.


The Mission of the Honorary Coach Program is to connect the athletic department with faculty as partners in the education and transformation of Providence College student-athletes. The program provides randomly selected faculty members an opportunity to witness first-hand the physical and intellectual demands of preparing for competition, as well as the teaching techniques that coaches employ to enhance performance and instill a spirit of healthy competition. Hosted by members of the student-athlete services staff, faculty members participate in pre-game preparation and get a close-up view of the action during the game.

Honorary Coaches throughout the years pose with their families and members of the OAS staff.
