Welcome to high school speech. Whether you are starting a new team or inheriting a team from someone else, you probably have hundreds of questions swirling around in your head. Sometimes, as new coaches and even new teachers, we are often afraid to ask others for help or even know who to ask for help. Therefore, this resource has been created with you in mind. Along with other resources available from the WISDAA website, this document presents practical ideas, suggestions, as well as advice from veteran coaches who were asking the same questions you may have. WISDAA coaches from around the state are here to help and support you. Enjoy reading!
