Do your coaches realize the impact they have on their players beyond just the game? Or the important role they play in your community? How to be a good coach goes beyond the skills of the game. This presentation highlights the unique position coaches play as leaders and teachers in sports organizations, offering coaching tips to support them. We define the concept of a “transformational” coach versus a “transactional” coach and explain how the former looks beyond the team statistics to focus on the spirit of the game and inspiring a positive lifestyle in individual athletes.
