Soldiers to Sidelines is dedicated to educating, certifying, developing and supporting members of the military community to become expert coaches and exemplary role models for youth.

The PenFed Foundation for Military Heroes has awarded Soldiers to Sidelines a $50,000 Military Heroes Grant to support their Coaching Summit, scheduled for July 24-26th in Nashville, Tenn. This grant will directly support 450 individuals. Soldiers to Sidelines is dedicated to educating, certifying, developing and supporting members of the military community to become expert coaches and exemplary role models for today’s impressionable youth.

Soldiers to Sidelines empowers and supports members of the military community through a comprehensive program. To help veterans, service members, military spouses and Gold Star families fulfill their passion for service and desire for purposeful work, Soldier Coaches are equipped with high human skills and coaching knowledge, along with connections to the athletic community. Following the belief that our veterans and service members can have a meaningful and lasting impact on others through athletics, this is all made possible by a comprehensive training and support network of top sports, military, business professionals and donors.

“The Coaching Summit is at the heart of our pursuit to equip those in the military community to positively influence youth and help them become the leaders of the future,” said Soldiers to Sidelines Founder & Executive Director Harrison Bernstein. “We are incredibly appreciative of the PenFed Foundation for Military Heroes’ support in making this Summit and its future impact possible.”
