  • S5E6: USMC Captain Elizabeth J. Vincent

    25 AUG 2022 · Season 5 Episode 6 of The WeCOACH Podcast presented by Hudl highlights longtime WeCOACH partner, the United States Marine Corps. In this episode, we engage with USMC Captain Elizabeth J. Vincent, Officer Selection Officer for Northern Indiana, a former softball and basketball student-athlete, who has served seven years with the Marines. Hear how both participation in sport and service in the Marine Corps has translated into lifelong values, leadership skills, a team-first mentality, as well as cultivated a fighting spirit. These characteristics will certainly serve her well as an aspiring collegiate softball coach once she’s completed her terms of service with the Marines.  Captain Vincent shares an opportunity for coaches, teams and athletics departments to engage with Marines in their local community via the Marines’ Influencer Program. Through leadership talks, cohesion team-building exercises, physical training/workouts and more, the Marines’ Influencer Program has an aligned mission with what coaches work daily to achieve—advance today’s youth, equip them with knowledge to be lifelong leaders while ultimately teaching them resilience to fight, win and overcome conflicts, challenges, and obstacles. WeCOACH appreciates the continued support the US Marine Corps provides to our Community and salutes every Marine for their commitment to serve and protect our country. Give this episode a listen then be sure to check out how the Marines’ Influencer Program can impart leadership, teamwork and culture within your team: RMI.Marines.com/Influencer.  Host: Vanessa Fuchs For more information, links and resources and hundreds more conversations from the world of women’s sport including articles, blogs, videos and podcasts visit wispsports.com.
