Joe Lukens speaking to coaches
SportsLeader was started when former Ohio State football player Joe Lukens and Louisville businessman and coach Paul Passafiume independently saw the need for a new type of sports virtue program. They saw the world of sports drifting away from it's original ideals; at the same time, they realized that sports, and the coach in particular, can play a pivotal role in the virtuous development of young men.
These men saw a need and started running the program on a local level. Since that time, SportsLeader has worked to create a solid foundation and is currently launching the program accross the United States.
