THIS! 👇🏼👇🏼👇🏼

Understanding the difference is HUGE!

Coaching Boys: Your words shape how they perform.
Coaching Girls: Your words shape how they see themselves.

Coaching Boys: Challenge them and they'll compete for you.
Coaching Girls: Connect with them and they'll compete for you — harder than you ever expected. But that connection has to come first.

Coaching Boys: After a mistake, challenge them and they'll bounce back to prove you wrong.
Coaching Girls: After a mistake, she's already tearing herself apart inside. She doesn't need your frustration. She needs you to remind her that one bad play doesn't define her.

Coaching Boys: After a loss, they want to know what to fix immediately.
Coaching Girls: After a loss, she needs to know you still believe in her before she can hear a single thing you want her to fix.

Coaching boys and coaching girls is not the same thing. Most coaches never take the time to learn the difference. But the ones who do? They don't just win more games, they change lives. The best coaches don't just teach the game, they learn the player. That's the difference. - Alison Furno

@MandiBaldufnsr It gets really rough when you have a catcher that has to attend 3 sessions. 😩
