Coach Beerbower was one of four group lecturers at last weekend's National High School Strength and Conditioning Association national conference at Homewood-Flossmoor High School.
In addition to his talk titled, "Beyond Sets and Reps: Training High School Student-Athletes," Coach Beerbower was also asked to speak at the Athletes in Action prayer breakfast.
The annual conference, held for the first time in Illinois, also featured hands-on sessions, smaller group discussions, vendor presentations and awards ceremonies.
Coach Beerbower said the ultimate goal of his presentation was to help equip and inspire strength coaches to be some of the most impactful educational leaders in their schools.
Organizers said this year’s conference had the largest turnout ever, Coach Beerbower said. Next year’s conference is planned for Dallas, Texas.
