National Throws Coaches Association (NTCA)

The National Throws Coaches Association (NTCA) is an organization dedicated to promoting the throwing events at all levels of instruction and competition. Founded in 2002 with approximately 100 members, the NTCA has grown to more than 6,000 members, making it the largest organization of its kind in the world. Based in Palm Desert, California, the NTCA works tirelessly as an advocate for throwing event coaches—including the development of exceptional educational materials, conducting instructional clinics for coaches, and honoring those individuals who have served the throwing events in an extraordinary manner in their careers as either a coach or an athlete.
