The Role of a Coach
As coach you not only have the responsibility of preparing your team for the season but you also take on many other roles - whether you realise it or not! How often do you act as a parent, friend, taxi driver, confidant, role model, teacher, communicator, or disciplinarian! As coach, sometimes this role extends outside of the team as you also have to be able to communicate with parents, other coaches and officials! Can you think back to your childhood and vividly remember the coach that influenced you the most? What qualities did that person have? Coaching is not only about good communication and management skills. It is also being able to develop the ‘whole’ athlete and giving them life skills that build character, its about recognising that different players have different needs, different learning styles and participate for different reasons. Half the ‘battle’ of coaching is being prepared and planned! Here are some tips!

• Plan plenty of fun activities (for all age groups!)
• Use a variety of equipment
• Start with a simple skill and slowly build it up
• Ensure a safe and secure environment
• Help all individuals (use language such as “Try it this way” rather than “No! Not like that”)
• Be organised yet flexible
• Set ground rules and expectations
• Be consistent
• Educate yourself – read coaching books, attend courses, adapt ideas from other sports
• Enjoyment! For you and the players!

Food For Thought!“A team is like a spiral. It is always moving. Either it is moving up and getting better OR it is moving down and getting worse. Which way it moves depends on the team and its Leader’s skills and abilities”
