5 Coaching Tips That Will Always Work at Team Practices
Posted on Nov 19, 2007 under Coaching Practice |1. Always find a positive comment to make about each player’s game.
2. Be sure to communicate that hard work always pays off. Encourage your players to perform better.
3. Give positive nicknames when appropriate like “Mr. Hustle” or “Speedy” or “Superstar.”
4. Always push the player you know you can, and thus raise the standard for the whole team. There is usually one player who is really strong and can physically handle all types of workouts. After finding this player, be very demanding of this player’s performance. (Be careful to explain to that strong player the reason for the extra attention.)
5. Be fair with your time, regardless of the wants each player has for attention. Be sure to help everyone and end by addressing the whole group.
