Being a Head Coach is HARD Work.
Many parents do not understand the work it takes.
I have talked to MANY coaches over my career.
Here are 9 Things Coaches Want Parents to Understand.

Do you stand up early in your downswing???
If you have this Early Extension pattern, you’ll need to learn to pivot in the downswing to better retain your posture. Make sure that you have your club face and wrist angles in check to ensure the club will have sufficient shallowing. Often time EE occurs because the club face is open at the top/or opening in transition/ or the shaft is step and requires shallowing to avoid crashing into the ground. It is important to understand whether your EE is happening due to a required compensation, or simply due to a lack of rotation through the ball. This video was for a player who fits more into the latter.
Talent is over-hyped.
- Are you on time?
- Do you work hard?
- Are you coachable?
- Can you be trusted?
- Do you accept your role?
- Do you help the team win?
- Do you make the right plays?
- Do you bring positive energy?
Talent, without the list above, is no fun for anyone.
Are you interested or committed?
Most will claim they are ‘committed’, but their actions show otherwise. You can’t sit on the fence of success. You find a way to make things happen by practicing discipline every day

A reporter asked Todd Bowles how the Bucs are preparing for the weather in Detroit this weekend.
Here’s the thing…..the game is being played in a dome. Just like every Lions game has been played for the past 50 years. @BSMotorCity
