Coaching Philosophy: Difference between revisions

Revision as of 04:29, 13 May 2018

Coaches have a lot of knowledge, kids should come with a good attitude ready to learn
A disciplined sideline is important,how kids act on the sidelines transitions to how they play on the field
Parents need to make sure their kids review any plays or coaches materials
Individualism and selfishness can kill a teams unity - Dudeism: A threat to teamwork
Parents should enforce that lacrosse is a team sport. Cheer kids on when they make ground balls, good passes, get assists. Teamwork and taking the right shot at the right time are way more important then scoring
Encourage your kid to find the role they excel at, is it ground balls, communication, sliding, passing, setting picks, etc
At all times parents should show respect to the refs and players
If you are upset about something practice the 24 hour rule before talking to the person you are upset with

No Selfish Play, Pass to the open man
Winning matters in high school, not at U9 or U11, getting better is what matters
Goal is for the kid to love the sport of lacrosse while getting better and having fun with their friends
Hard work is a must, we take practice serious and earn having fun
With hard work and dedication wins will come
Goal is to have the kids evolve into loving the sport
A team of average players working together will beat a team of superstars
Wins and losses don't matter at this age, we want kids to remember this time as when they learned the most and developed the passion for the sport
Have fun while competing
Kids get a lot of touches with the ball at practice
