BECKY BURLEIGH

Becky Burleigh

Becky is in her 26th year as the Head Women’s Soccer Coach at the University of Florida. Few college coaches can match Becky Burleigh’s ability to bring a team ready to challenge for each season’s conference and national titles on such a consistent basis. There is no question that Burleigh stunned the soccer community when the Florida program she started in 1995 claimed the 1998 NCAA crown in just its fourth season of play. But focusing on that obvious achievement doesn’t give due credit to the job Burleigh did year-in and year-out as a tactician of the sport, developing players and promoting the sport at local, state and national levels.

WHAT TO EXPECT

The Coach Forum is a large annual event in Nashville, TN with keynote speakers and small-group workshops that inspire coaches to be better leaders and mentors for their players.
