5 Stages of Program Development Model
1. Rising Program
A Rising Program is one that seems to be getting better each year. The record is improving and the program is clearly climbing up the conference, state, and/or national standings. The coaches and captains focus on building a solid foundation of success that can support the program's ascent for the long-term.

People are attracted to a Rising Program, expectations are high, and the outlook is favorable as the program continues to improve.
2. Elite Program
An Elite Program is one that has a realistic chance to compete for and win conference, state, and/or national championships virtually every year.

The Elite Program knows exactly what it stands for and recruits and rewards people accordingly.
3. Plateauing Program
A Plateauing Program is one that seems to be stuck at a certain level. This program typically attains a consistent moderate to mediocre level of success, but can't seem to ascend beyond it. Plateauing Programs tend to hover in this similar success range year after year but struggle to breakthrough to the next level.

Over time the same issues resurface and tend to hold down the program. Thus, the challenges
