Sitting at a HS tourney. Some parents “discussing” playing time. One dad pipes up and says “no need for discussion. If she wants to sit on the bench she can. If she doesn’t, it’s her job to change that, not ours” refreshing to hear.

Like snowflakes, no two athletes are alike. The one thing that great coaches have most in common is the ability to discern the different ways to motivate each guy. Some players need a soft touch. Others need a firm kick.

Average players come to practice and go through the motions.

Great players come to practice and get better!

Which one are you?

Coaching is about being unafraid to deal in specifics. Coaching with generalities leads to confusion, avoidance and future frustration. Failure to deal with the specific problem now will rear its ugly head in the storm, when it is impossible to solve.

The best players are often the best listeners. They focus on, process; then apply what coach says.

Q: Philosophy on punishment?

Geno Auriemma:

Referee called travel on a left-right euro step for right hand layup because it looked awkward. It was not a travel. Other player switches pivot foot on drive, and no call because it was smooth. It's why footwork is pointless in basketball now.

I don't understand those who suggest children can't learn without a coach, drill, or explicit instruction. That's not how I learned to walk!

Usually, growth comes at the expense of previous comfort or safety.
It is the span of discomfort between safe places that we grow.
