I just received this DM from a young coach, starting out.
He says, “It’s my first-year coaching, and I just wanted to know what your ideal assistant coach looks like.
My answer...
An ideal assistant coach arrives early, helps set up practice, asks the head coach what he needs, actively coaches during practice (doesn't just stand around), stays positive and encouraging, connects with kids off the field, uses love, not fear, to motivate, and ensures the kids know he has their back.
Coaches. Be that kind of coach.

💯 - Treat every rep as it’s own singular learning experience.
Thrive in the mundane and monotonous repetition
