Who Else Wants a Less Stressful More Successful Season?
Dear Coach,
There's so much more to coaching than just teaching skills. You have to deal with parents, work out logistical issues, coordinate schedules, and so much more. Unfortunately, this can take away from what coaching is all about - helping your players!
Make sure your team doesn't take the hit because you simply weren’t prepared for the upcoming season. Coaches who've used this bootcamp in the past took the
necessary steps to make sure their team had the best chance of success during season. Now you have an opportunity to do the same!
Let me ask you a couple questions:
Have you ever felt like you were going crazy dealing with parent issues?
Have you ever felt that you were spending way too much time on "administrative" tasks during the season instead of giving all you have to the things that really matter?
Have you ever felt like you were losing direction with all the "distractions" or off-the-field issues that come with coaching?
I'm sure you've heard the phrase, "If you fail to prepare, prepare to fail." Guess what? This applies to your approach to the season as well.
What if you could eliminate potential problems before they even begin?
How would you like to lay down the groundwork for your season and avoid as many of the major obstacles to success as possible?
If
you believe that good preparation is critical to your success and
essential for having less stress along the way, this bootcamp home study is for
you!
If you don't lay the groundwork for your season now:
There's no way you'll have a solid plan of action to carry out when the season starts
You'll be hard pressed to effectively deal with unexpected challenges because you'll be too
busy working through issues that could have been handled in the off season
Your team won't be able move forward if you’re still dabbling with
stuff you should have had done long before your team hit the field
Is a the position you want to be in? Is that where you want your team to be at the start of the season?
Will you be the coach stressing out and passing anxiety along to players because you’re unorganized and unprepared?
Or are you ready to do what it takes to be the coach who
goes into the first competitions of the season calm and confident because you've taken initiative to make sure you (and your team) are as well prepared as possible?
I know, it seems like a silly question, but...
Are you doing what you need to do NOW so that you can be that calm and confident coach when the season starts?
Have you thought through all the logistics you must deal with?
Do you have a solid coaching philosophy in place that you can stand by?
Do you have a clear vision for yourself and for your team so that you're players can be more successful?
Do you know how to get the most out of your tryouts to build the best team you can?
Do
you have all your rules policies and guidelines written out so that you
can share them at your parent meeting and greatly reduce potential
parent problems?
I know, I know, so many questions and so many things to think about. It's quite overwhelming! That's why I developed this bootcamp - to help you through each and every one of these issues.
The holidays have just ended and it's time to get back in gear and get ready for the upcoming season. I know you have a lot of administrative issues to work through as the season gets closer. This bootcamp will help make sure you don't overlook a major issue that would put a snag in your season if it's left unaddressed. Let's walk through and
