Sean McVay asks himself regularly…

“Would I want to be coached by me?”

The LA Rams coach holds the mirror up in front of himself and questions his practices and processes. He questions his behaviours and actions.

“Would I want to be coached by me?”

Would I want to experience what I deliver daily? Would I want to be around me? Would I want to engage in my session design? Would I want to approach me and have an honest conversation? Would I look to me as someone who is highly competent?

“Would I want to be coached by me?”

A question that goes beyond sport…would I want to be married to me? Would I want to be in a team at work with me? It’s a question that immerses you in a meta-state aimed to build self-awareness - thinking about your behaviours in a given context. Rising above yourself to look at yourself. Taking the helicopter view of what others might experience from you.

Self-awareness
Meta-states

“It is Sports. Some days you win and some days you lose.”

Parenting GOLD 🥇

The messages we send our kids are powerful.

Tell your child:

“I love watching you play!”

This should be required viewing for every kid playing sports.

PARENTS: A friendly reminder…

- Your child’s teacher is not perfect
- Your child’s referee is not perfect
- Your child’s coach is not perfect
- Your child is not perfect
- You are not perfect

We are ALL a work in progress.

Show Class. Show Respect. Lead by Example.

Why do you Coach?

This is an important question for coaches to ask.

There will be many ups and downs so knowing your “why” is important.

Great Teams WIN with Great Teammates! How can Coaches help Develop Great Teammates? Here are 8 Ways.

[Greg Berge @GregBerge]

A great read on a sad situation. Without knowing all of the facts, here are a few thoughts…

1. As an Admin and Coach myself, barring ethical or illegal issues, we NEED to support our coaches and officials. It is that simple. If coaches ever need to improve, there is a process to do that. Parents do not get to make these decisions.

2. Most parents will always have a ME first mindset. This is a challenge with team sports. There are also many parents who “get” team sports. We need these parents to step up and share their voice. Do this at the youth level, at the HS level, in the stands, online, and in person. You are key “gatekeepers” of the team culture. Do not let the negative “few” dominate the narrative. Parents who get it - please step up and lead. We need your voice.

3. Have the child present for any parent meeting. In most cases the child does not have the issue and it changes the conversation. Playing time discussions at the HS level should only be a conversation between the coach and athlete.

4. Parents: Remember, it is your child’s experience, not yours.

5. Parents: Accept the Struggle of Youth Sports. I have written a lot about this. See below for more…

Comment des parents d’une équipe de hockey M18 AAA peuvent-ils être désagréables au point de pousser l’entraîneur d’une équipe championne à démissionner? Les parents toxiques sont devenus un problème de société. https://t.co/RhZC6CKjh8

[Mathieu Bérubé @mathieuberube86]

@MikLalancette @monctonwildcats Il se pourrait qu’un des facteurs soit que les équipes canadiennes n’ont pas de limite de 17 ans. Dans mes années Midget AAA, c’était seulement des 17 ans « late » qui pouvait jouer. Les longues séries au Qc versus les séries en Atlantique peuvent accentuer le facteur fatigue.

[Mathieu Bérubé @mathieuberube86]

😔 ce texte résume bien ce qui se passait dans les équipes juniors. Bien sûr, certaines organisations avaient de bons leaders qui ne laissaient pas ça passer… mais trop peu. Espérons que la culture a changé pour le mieux… pas fort…

@RayDoesData Les écoles anglophones à Fredericton sont des écoles de quartier. Les écoles francophones servent la communauté au grand complet… de Harvey, Fredericton Junction, etc. 1h et plus dans l’autobus.

[Mathieu Bérubé @mathieuberube86]

@Mitch_Giguere Beaucoup d’indiscipline au niveau de l’engagement et du temps sur la patinoire. As-tu les stats de la durée de chaque présence des joueurs? Par le passé, l’identité canadienne passait par de courtes présences, discipliné sur les changements et l’engagement sur les 2nd quick.

Peut-être mais je crois qu'il aura aussi réussi à réveiller certains, comme moi, qui constate maintenant l'importance de communiquer en français au travail et sur les médias sociaux. Action primordiale pour ne pas céder à l'assimilation et ainsi, perdre la langue par les petits.
