RE: Sporting memories: Being a coach and finding that sweet spot between motivation and having fun

You are viewing a single comment's thread:

It would be great fun if the players were all motivated to learn and excel and were willing to listen to the guidance that a seasoned player-turned-coach had to offer. In the youth leagues that I was involved in, very few of the kinds actually aspired to even be good at it and like I said, it was just being used as free babysitting.

That would have been wild if you had gotten the salaried job, that would be a dream come true for sure.

When I was refereeing I showed players how to bind properly which also improved their ability along with making the game safer. I couldn't help myself and the players appreciated this eve when they were adults and had bee doing it wrong all their playing careers. Parents using sport as babysitting is just not right and hope some kids actually enjoyed the time away and maybe took up the sport later.
