The Process Of Stressful Coaching
My paper was about how stressful coaching is. I interviewed my former coaches and ask the simple question “ Is coaching more stressful than being an player”. I researched how coaching plays a major impact in a player's life and search some videos of how stressful coaching can be. nothing easy about being a coach. Coaches have to learn to be patient, handle stress, be a teacher and friend on and off the court, ignore criticism and a lot more.
I applied my knowledge by having a tournament to raise money for the basketball team. I had the opportunity to apply my research and actually coach my team in the tournament. I prepared my final presentation by gathering pictures from the tournament, and using some videos to show how coaching really is

    Coach Bob Knight and Coach Mike Krzyzewski are arguably two of the best coaches to have ever coached college basketball in terms of notoriety and success. Anyone can reference a stat book and realize how successful these two coaches have been, according to the numbers, but comparing their leadership styles and approach to the game is a whole other story. While the two coaches have completely different leadership styles, Coach K and Coach Knight have more in common than just developing future NBA All-Stars, winning NCAA championships, and becoming a legend in the sport of college basketball. It so happens that Coach K and Coach Knight began what would become a lifetime friendship at the United States Military Academy at WestPoint where, then freshman cadet, Mike Krzyzewski was a player on Coach Knights basketball squad. Coach K would later become Coach Knight’s graduate assistant coach at Indiana University, the school where Coach Knight made his mark on college basketball.…

    I took interest while reading this article about coaching and what makes a good coach just because I immediately associated it with football. Branick uses Swales’ six characteristics to analyze coaches discourse community. Three of the characteristics were easy to distinguish and those being goals, lexis, and genres. He was effective by explaining how goal involved with coaches is really important not just with them but to help the athlete set goals and meet them. Lexis was described as being important almost as a code word for coaches, this word could have many different meanings, as in plays or formations. Genres being essential for coaches because they refer this to playbooks. Playbooks are the key piece for a coach and the players so that…

    Coaches are more than just individuals who lead a sports team. Coaches exist in a variety of forms to guide and instruct when one lacks the knowledge of which direction to head into to become successful, or reach their goal on their own. The variety of styles of coaching, or leadership, that exist can have either a positive, or negative approach, but both forms can have drastically different effects on a performer. As introduced by Craig Stewart in, "Female Athletes' Rankings of Coaching Behavior: A Longitudinal Report" , he explains how, “...negative climates resulted in higher player anxiety and performance-related worry which reduced athletes’ abilities to stay focused on learning, and reduced their self-confidence.”…

    coaching philosophy

    As a coach I want to be the leader of a successful program who helps student athletes excel on and off of the field. I will do this by first hiring good assistant coaches around me who can help me bring my vision to reality. It will require dedication from the student athletes in the classroom and in practice and games to be the absolute best they can be in any situation. It will be up to me to instill in my athletes hard work and dedication in everything they do. So I will first need them to respect and maybe even fear me a little bit, but I still need to maintain a close enough relationship with them to where they can consider me a friend and be able to turn to me in any time of need. I will first stress the importance of hard work through drills and conditioning, but at the same time not make it feel like work for them; make them understand there is a reason for all of the things that we do on a daily basis. Once the team understands what it takes to play for me; maybe even some quit because they think it will be too hard, that's what I want; I don't want the weak ones who will give up on themselves and their teammates, only the strong will survive. Then you can evaluate each individual in every facade of the game and start to teach them in the areas that they are weak and strengthen their strengths. I want my team to be able to runs themselves without one coach needed at a practice or a game. Of course coaches will be there but by halfway through a season I want my team to run like a well-oiled machine not needing any coaches to tell them to do any specific thing. I will instill in my team self confidence that they can do anything, beat anyone, and achieve any goal that they set their minds on on any given day. I will teach about winning and losing, how to win and stay humble and how to lose and not have your confidence shaken to the point to where you struggle to perform. I will teach…

    Philosophy of coaching

    Many coaches have their own philosophy to live by. Some coaches are to win, some are to teach the players to be responsible, and some are to allow the players to just have fun. When the word philosophy comes to mind I immediately think of the words and accomplishments a coach should live by. My coaching philosophy is one that is not fully developed. Right now my philosophy is to win but at the same time teach my players to be responsible. Of course everything is easier in words than it is to follow out in actions.…

    After reading these three articles between how coaches and players do not get along with them attacking each other and when a player does something terrible and the coach defends them. We all have been in a situation where we do not want to be talked to by a family member or friend just because he had a bad day, but when you bring that attitude to a sporting event or practice sometimes the player or coach my lose their composure. Which happened in the three articles that I read, dealing with Latrell Sprewell choked his coach PJ Carlesimo during practice, coach Bobby Knight choked one of his own players Neil Reed, and when Rick Carlisle defended Ron Artest and other players he coached after the brawl in Detroit. In reading those articles I feel that they told me that there is either a bad, competitive, or good relationship between a player and coach. The one with Sprewell and Carlesimo, Sprewell who showed up to practice late that day choked his coach Carlesimo because Carlesimo wanted to know where he has been for being late. Although in the article it states that racial comments were said to Sprewell, but later found out that there were no such thing. So Sprewell was fired by the Golden State Warriors, the team he played for at the time, and was suspended by the NBA for the remainder of the season. In the article about Bobby Knight choking his player Neil Reed, it was halftime during a game when Bobby Knight was still coaching the Indiana University 's men 's basketball team and Knight was so upset with his players that the one player Neil Reed said something to Knight and Knight went after him and started choking him. After the news broke out about that incident the Indiana University 's President fined Bobby Knight $30,000 and suspended him three games. In the final article I read coach Rick Carlisle defends Ron Artest 's actions against the Detroit Pistons fan that threw a cup of beer at him and then Artest went after him in that brawl we…

    Nicole, I believe coaching is very important just like you do this week. I believe an effective coach can make the difference between a winning, successful, and happy team versus a struggling team in the workplace. If the coach is doing their job correctly the team will be willing to learn, communicate, and be more effective. I feel that if the coach is effective in communicating with the workers things will run more smoothly.…

    Teaching and Coaching

    The teaching-coaching function of the domains of nursing practice is a very important aspect that nurses must practice to be effective. We learn many things from textbooks, clinical environments and job placements; but I think some of the most valuable lessons and skills that I have learned were from my fellow nurses and other healthcare providers while on the job. I work with adolescents on a daily basis that are cognitively impaired that need to be taught many life skills. The competencies that I want to emphasize in my post are the first that is listed which is; “Timing: Capturing a Patient’s Readiness to Learn”. This one particular patient that was on my unit was a 14 year old male that was being resistant to the teaching of proper use of his metered dose inhaler. The patient did not want to accept the fact that he had asthma. He stated that the only reason that he has shortness of breath was, “because I smoke too many cigarettes”. I recognized that the patient just simply wasn’t ready to learn at this time. “Assessing where a patient is, how open he is to information, deciding when to go ahead even when the patient does not appear ready, are key aspects of effective patient teaching” (Benner, 2001). So I waited a few hours later and gathered some information about asthma and the benefits of using the inhaler. After hours upon hours of speaking with the patient, he was finally able to realize that the inhaler would give him a better quality of life when used correctly. This was about a month ago, and the patient is now using the inhaler as needed, the correct way. This may seem like a small achievement to some, but I felt very complete when I went home that night after speaking with this patient. Thank you for reading my post, I look forward to reading your feedback. James 5:15 - And the prayer of faith shall save the sick, and the Lord shall raise him up; and if he have committed sins, they shall be forgiven him.…

    I was very glad with my informative speech on James Harden, I felt an amazing amount of confidence as I went up there and presented. I practiced a lot the night before and nights previous to that. One of the main reasons I felt that I did well is the fact that I presented without the use of notecards, which was a huge part of my speech as I was able to make better eye-contact with everyone around the room. I was able to pronounce and project my voice outward without fear of messing up. The confidence I felt up there was really nice, and I feel another one of the reasons I felt that was the practice I put into this presentation the nights before.…

    My first issue that i chose was a national issue that has been common theme of talk in the college ranks College players getting paid to play sports. In the article it states the facts on why they should not get paid and really states the proper way to compensate college athletes. This is an issue that we talked about in the class and it really interested me how they have not came up with any solution to pay athletes. In the article he covers what benefits scholarships do and don't have. He talks about the cost of living stipend that should be implemented into scholarships and how what the schools and leagues makes would make this easy to happen and would benefit everyone without spending that much extra money. He also does mention in the end that even though this is a good solution the questions would still rise weather there will be cheating in college sports. The growing knowledge is that the big name schools will dominate the recruiting scene if they start paying college athletes because they make so much more money than anyone else.…
