COACHES: YES, players should be self-motivated. YES, players should bring energy to practice. YES, bored players may lack a desire to be good. BUT the reality is most players are not yet where they need to be. Most players need motivation. The best coaches find ways to help.
Coaches: What you do is far more important than wins/losses. Sports gives you the opportunity to seriously impact lives. You can change kids’ lives for the better & help instill a sense of self-belief in those who lack it. The impact on your players is lifelong if you serve them!
Your athletic career is most likely temporary; your character lasts a lifetime. The person you are is far more important than the player you are! What are your habits/routines? Are you grateful, humble, honest. Do you care for others? Be someone people respect on & off the court!

Great coaches combine the best qualities of a player’s coach with the best qualities of a disciplinary coach. You don’t have to be either-or. You can be both positive and demanding at the same time.
