From the coach that gave me my first coaching gig 22 years ago "You can learn from anyone (coaches) you're around, try to take something from everyone you work with. It may be something good or even something you know not to ever do but you can always learn something!" Yup. Might be the best overall advice in here |

"Be prepared to lose with 'winners' versus winning with 'losers'." Coaching is so much more rewarding when you start measuring the kids by their work ethic and attitudes and not their innate athletic ability. So true. Nothing more miserable than having a season where you dread having to go through a practice and coach a player(s).
For most veteran coaches, it's just a given; you play the kids that give effort and are coachable. But, that is something that was lost on me when I was younger. I coached under some guys who made concessions for some athletic players with bad attitudes; something that I thought was the name of the game. But, I've learned better.

It is for the kids. Period. And by "it" I mean everything. Leave your ego at the door and do everything humanly possible to give the kids an amazing experience This applies to the classroom too. |

The loyalty you give will not always be reciprocated, be loyal anyway.
