New Coaches: Getting Started in Coaching

Thanks Coach!

Without you there would not be a game. That’s right!

Because of your willingness to volunteer some time your players will enjoy a sporting opportunity they otherwise would not have had.

Your giving attitude plays a huge part in making Southland such a great place to live and contributes in the long term to making Southland New Zealand’s premier sporting province per head of population.

Winning at sport is a wonderful feeling. More important than winning though is the enjoyment we get from watching our players play the game.

Please make sure at every practice and every game is the most enjoyable part of your player’s day.

Confidence is usually not that high when we start something new. Coaching is no different!

The following information will give you some guidelines how to coach your players at practice and at your games.

May you have a rewarding time and enjoy the best of success!

Many thanks again!
