Coach Helbling Leadership Style
Leader Profiles
Best Leader: Phil Helbling – Teacher and coach at Moscow High School
1. I first heard of Coach Helbling at a very young age. He was a captain of the football team at Moscow High School, and an all-state running back. I followed his accomplishments from high school to his collegiate career at the University of Idaho. The first time I personally met him was when he was being introduced as our head football coach. He was also hired as a strength and condition teacher. From then on, I encountered Coach Helbling almost every single day of my high school career.
2. As I stated earlier, Coach Helbling played football for the University of Idaho. After a career ending shoulder surgery, he began focusing all of his efforts on strength training and coaching. He was an intern for the strength and condition program at Idaho, and a graduate assistant football coach. This background gave him the right tools to be a successful teacher and coach at Moscow High School. Even though he did not have any prior head coaching experience, he was still a great leader and mentor.
3. …show more content…
I have had a relationship with Coach Helbling since the day I was introduced to him. He is both a teacher and coach to me. I spent almost every day with him for over two years, and I still keep in touch with him today.
Worst Leader: Don Dudley – Coach at Moscow High School.
1. I first met Don Dudley when he was hired as our head basketball coach. Our previous head coach had decided to take a job just a few weeks before the season started, and he was the only one who applied for the job. I was personally introduced to him by our athletic director.
2. Coach Dudley coached basketball for Moscow High School in the nineties. He decided to leave his coaching position to become a farrier for the next 20 years. He ended up losing his business for an undisclosed reason, and wanted to start coaching

    Lamkin's Role In Apprentice School Sports

    Heflin, a former standout athlete from the College of William and Mary, who arrived in Newport News with an impressive resume and high recommendations from the athletic department of his alma mater. He had coached the Tribe's junior varsity team for several seasons before coming to The Apprentice School. But even with his experience and extensive knowledge of the game, he soon found that coaching a varsity squad of shipbuilding apprentices would require a different approach than that of coaching freshmen football players at a prestigious university, which at the time had an enrollment of nearly 4,000 students. Coach Heflin's first season with the Builders was a season of adjustments and unexpected…

    Prior to being the principal at Jennings County he attended the school. He was a great athlete and was inducted into the Indiana State High School Athletics Association Hall of Fame. Growing up I have been told many stories about how special of a man he was. He stood over 6 feet tall, well groomed with his dark hair in a side part and he was made of pure muscle. It wasn’t the type you see in body building magazines but the type that could lift a car off of someone pinned underneath, or knock down a horse with a single…

    Most Likely To Succeed Summary

    Reading is something we do every single day not just in school but when we are driving, or when we are ordering food at a restaurant. Every single day we read but this week one paper that stood out to me was a article about football and teachers. I can see how they may not seem as if they relate or if they will ever relate. However the article really shows how we may never know who’s right for the job even if it’s choosing a quarterback for the nfl or picking a teacher. In Most Likely to Succeed by Malcolm Gladwell they talk about a scout named Dan Shonka, and how he can’t determine if Chase Daniel the star quarterback at the University of Missouri will actually be able to play in the NFL. In the NFL you have one moment to throw the ball just…

    Jerry Rice Biography

    Jerry Rice Biography

    Jerry’s success started when he was young and decided he wanted to work hard enough to achieve what he wanted to achieve. Jerry Rice was born and raised in Starkville, Mississippi, as the son of a brick mason. He developed his hands while working for his father. Jerry caught bricks with one hand and two hands teaching him hand eye coordination at a young age. Another attribute to Jerry’s success when he was young he ran to school and home from school everyday. This was a 5 mile trip there and 5 miles back. One more story that was believed to be true about Jerry is one day in school the principle saw Jerry running in the hall. According to his book "Rice" (written with Michael Silver), the principal tracked him down for skipping class,[3] but when he called his name the startled Rice sprinted off running, after seeing him run, the principal decided to let him join the football team or be punished. Jerry decided upon football and the principal told the school's football coach about his speed. The truthfulness of this story has been questioned. This was believed to spark Jerry’s very successful football career. From hear on out it was like he was on a mission to basically define success and show people you don’t have to be the fastest or biggest you just have to strive for what you want with hard work and dedication. In High school Jerry caught the eyes of college scouts from numerous division 1-aa schools around his area. Jerry Rice attended Mississippi Valley State University from 1980–1984. He became a standout receiver and acquired the nickname "World", because there wasn't a ball in the world he couldn't catch. Statistics from his college career are sparse, but the College Football Hall of Fame website claims that Rice, as a sophomore in 1982, caught 66 passes for 1,133 yards and 7 touchdowns. That was his first season playing with redshirt freshman quarterback Willie Totten, nicknamed "Satellite". Together, Totten and Rice would become known as "The Satellite…

    Athletic Trainer Interview Research Paper

    I interviewed Ben Cleveland, who is the head Athletic Trainer for Oklahoma Baptist University. Athletic Trainers are not technically a field in leadership studies, but this interview was very beneficial to be because I want to be an Athletic Trainer at the high school level. This interview just reassured me that being an Athletic Trainer is truly what I want to do with my life. Before talking about how Ben views leadership, one has to know and understand his background and where he is coming from. Ben is originally from Mobile, Alabama and earned his undergraduate in Science in Athletic Training from the University of Alabama soon after that he obtained a Master’s of Science in Physical Education at Florida State University.
