One of the most underrated skills in coaching is being able to explain something simple without making the kid feel stupid. One of my biggest pet peeves is when a coach belittles or embarrasses a kid because they don’t understand a detail that seems “obvious.” Me and my boy @Scraolu were discussing this in depth, and the more we talked about it, the more obvious it became. It might be obvious to you, but it’s not obvious to them. And that is literally why they need coaching. Sometimes it comes from arrogance and sometimes it comes from ignorance, but either way, it’s bad coaching. Anybody can yell “shoot a double,” “get to your feet,” or “finish better,” but can you actually teach it? Can you explain where their hips should be, where their head should go, how they build to feet the right way, where their hands should be, whether their arms should be short or long, and what position they are trying to create before they finish? That is coaching. Not just showing the move. Not just knowing the move. Not just assuming every kid sees wrestling the way you do. The best coaches can take the smallest detail and explain it in a way anyone can understand. Some kids pick things up fast. Some need it broken down 10 different ways. That doesn’t make them dumb. That makes them normal. A coach’s job is not to prove how much they know. A coach’s job is to get the athlete to understand. If a kid doesn’t get it, your first response shouldn’t be embarrassment, sarcasm, or frustration. It should be, “How can I explain this better?” That’s the difference between someone who knows wrestling and someone who can actually coach.
