Fostering healthy coach/athlete relationships are essential for a positive sports environment and should be modeled by coaches. Great coaches find ways to create relatedness with regular check-ins with athletes, admin staff, and parents.
The best coaches I’ve been around excel at:
- Loving their athletes
- Building relationship
- Attention to Detail
- Willingness to Actively Listen
- Ability to Adapt #GrowthMindset
- Concerned more with their impact than their W-L Record
If you coach kids or teens and you prioritize wins or competition over the health and safety of your athletes you should reconsider that role. Young athletes are not disposable objects.
