Full-Time Parent... Part-Time Coach!: A Practical Guide for How to Be a Caring, Fun, and Fair Youth Sports Coach - 6556

I have witnessed every level of competitive athletics through my basketball journey. I cannot overstate how integral my parents were to my experience. As a parent myself, I hope to pass along the same lessons of enthusiasm, positivity, and effort to my own kids who have started their journey on sports. Catalytic coaches, like catalytic parents, are difference makers. -SHANE BATTIER, College and NBA Player Executive and Head of Player Development, Miami Heat This is a welcome guide for all of us who've been tapped to coach and may not feel completely prepared to step into the roles of teacher, motivator, encourager, and more. As a parent of athletes, a Division I collegiate athlete myself, and a youth coach, I know how important coaches are and the challenges of leading young people. I wish I had had this book a long time ago. -BRENDA H. FREIJE, Consultant and Legal Advisor to Nonprofits, Leadership Coach The guide fills a great need for parents as coaches to have the resources and practical ideas for teaching team skills. I personally have experienced coaching in youth leagues as well as at the National Team level with USA Basketball and know this guide will provide practical and immediately applicable ideas. I highly recommend all coaches, and parents, read this guide! -DON SHOWALTER, Director and Coach, USA Basketball
