Hot take: People who say “I can’t coach kids these days” are just lazy, or bad at coaching. The point of coaching is to get the best out of each individual athlete. Athletes who all have diverse backgrounds and personalities.
Adapt your coaching
Don’t blame the kids
“This is a completely selfless job. If I’m really going to be a great coach, if I’m going to be a great mentor to these kids, my energy — all my energy — needs to go into them. It can’t be about ‘me’ anymore.” —Gabe Dean
