Coaching values statement

Personal vision on coaching

I will have a player centered approach to development and encourage players to believe in themselves and their team. Create a space where they can be positive and support their teammates. Fine tune their technique, work hard, never give up, compete with a sense of urgency and get better everyday 

●

I will use the Play-Practice-Play structure for training to create opportunities for players to develop. They will be challenged by doing things that are uncomfortable and they will gain confidence by perfecting those same things 

●

I will teach players the importance and responsibilities of the 4 stages of the game. And encourage players to Show Effort, Sportsmanship, Teamwork and Integrity on and off the field 

● 

I will be on time and organized for games. Highlight the previous training sessions. Remind players of their position and their responsibilities. Give players the freedom to find solutions and allow them to learn from the game. I will respect the ref, the opposing coaches, parents and players

●

I understand that each player is different and have different paths to development. I ensure that no matter the experience, physical ability or skill level, they will have fun, get better individually and improve as a team
