Good coaches = good teachers. You could drop a good coach into almost any classroom and they’d figure it out because that’s a skill.
Flip it around—ask an 8–3 classroom-only teacher with no coaching experience to run practice? Might as well send the kids home.
Selfish coaches:
• Boss others around
• Micromanage
• Blame others
• Look to be served
• See themselves as being above others
SERVANT coaches:

• Empower others

• Selflessly serve others
• Know that we’re all in this together
Transactional coaches:
• Boss others around
• Micromanage
• Blame others
• Look to be served
• See themselves as being above others
TRANSFORMATIONAL coaches:
• Lead by example
• Empower others

@Fannincountyfb an Earthly Win on Friday night is meaningless when it comes to 3 Eternal Wins on Saturday! We are not worried about getting players to the next level, if they are good enough they will find them! We want to see them in eternity! CC
@Fannincountyfb We Do Not Play For The Numbers On The Jerseys To The Left! We Play For The One On The Right! “Everything We Do Echoes Into Eternity!” John We Hope We Make You Proud As You Are Already In Eternity With Christ!
Coach Cheatham
One tip to becoming a Transformational coach.
Stop yelling. Start communicating.
This begins before practice. Connect with your players. Ask them how their day has been. Look them in the eye. Give them a fist bump or high five. Show them you see them and you care.
Then carry that connection into practice.
Connect, communicate, motivate, smile.
Your athletes will trust you, appreciate you, respond to you.
You can thank me later.
With the shortage of officials that we’ve been seeing in the recent years, it’s well past time that we start treating them the same way we would like to be treated!
