10 Important Lessons I’ve Learned from Coaching Youth Sports
Manage episode 291962786 series 2774623
When you have kids, you start seeing the world through their eyes – and you definitely learn a lot from them.
I played a lot of sports growing up. And by a lot, I mean if you can think of it, I’ve probably played it at some level.
For me, personally, I enjoyed sports because I loved competing and learning athletic skills.
And thankfully, this passion translated into a career where I get to work with athletes.!
I could say that being in the world of sports and physical preparation all these years has taught me a thing or two about the coaching profession.
But coaching my own kids in sports for the last five years taught me some things that I wouldn’t have learned without them.
In this episode, I share 10 lessons I’ve learned from coaching youth sports and how they’ve influenced me as a coach.
I share some of the questions you should ask yourself, to help you evaluate and improve your role as a coach, trainer, or rehab professional.
I reveal the three elements you need to check whenever you’re coaching youth sports and highlight the importance of creating a fun, engaging environment where it’s safe to make mistakes.
I also underscore the reason coaches and trainers should strive to be a positive influence on others and how they can move from a place of significance to a place of impact.
We want to evolve. As coaches, athletes, human beings, the goal is to make a mistake and learn from it. – Mike Robertson
