      Coaching - Ace McCloud

      Introduction

      I want to thank you and congratulate you for buying the book, Coaching: Coaching Strategies: The Top 100 Best Ways to Be a Great Coach.

      Coaching is the solid foundation behind any successful sports team.  By definition, coaching is a training and development process that involves a supporter (the coach) and a learner (the player).  The supporter often has years of expertise and experience beyond the learner, hence his ability to teach and pass on information.  Unlike mentoring, coaching focuses more on teaching specific tasks and reaching specific goals.  There are different types of coaching for different areas of life: General life coaching, health and wellness coaching, mental health coaching, business and career coaching, financial coaching, relationship coaching, and sports coaching.  This book will focus on coaching for sports, although most of the strategies used are transferable to other areas of life.

      The job of a sports coach is to help an athlete develop to his or her full potential.  A coach will analyze a player’s performance, instruct and advise in skills development and provide encouragement, among other things.  To be a sports coach, you have to be not only a coach but also a leader, mentor, motivator and teacher.

      Some great coaches have shown just how far powerful a coach’s influence can take individual players as well as whole teams.  In the chapters that follow we will briefly review the legacy of well-known individuals like Joe Paterno, Bobby Knight, Bill Walsh, Vince Lombardi, Red Auerbach, Phil Jackson, Eddie Robinson, and John Wooden.  Each of these coaches has moved mountains in his particular sport, setting high standards for all who follow in his footsteps. 

      This book contains proven steps and strategies on how to become a powerful, successful and possibly legendary coach yourself.  You will discover everything you need to know to help your team become unstoppable – including how to help athletes prepare physically and mentally, how to improve communication with your team, how to boost player morale, how to assist your players in developing new skills, and much more.  It takes a very special and dedicated person to be a great coach – will it be you?

      Chapter 1: Leadership and Coaching

      Coaches are leaders whose every decision is put on display.  A leader is a person with a clear vision for the future who wants to enlist others to help him turn a dream into reality.  In the same way, a sports coach is pursuing an objective; he wants to build a team of players that will grow into both a successful performing unit and individual players who are learning and growing, both as athletes and as people. 

      A Coach:

      Analyzes individuals and teams, seeking insight as to how they work and how to optimize their performance.

      Coordinates multiple teams: teams of athletes, teams of staff, and teams of supporters.

      Mentors individuals, helping them overcome any obstacles that would hold them back from succeeding.

      Assists individuals as they develop into leaders in their own right.  

      Equips individual leaders to pursue success in their field.

      Steers teams of leaders as they pursue their dreams.

      Inspires whole communities to reach for a vision.

      Practical Dreamers

      Leaders tend to view a person or a situation through two separate lenses.  On the one hand, they are experts at grasping a non-sugar-coated understanding of the current reality. On the other, they are able to see beyond the present reality, stretching their vision to the extent that a person or a situation can be developed. 

      They are dreamers but also strategizers.  They have both feet firmly planted in the present, but can cast a vision far into the future. They can successfully see ways around the obstacles in their path until the desired result is reached. 

      Due to their tendency to be internal visionaries, leaders may appear as somewhat aloof from reality. However, the air of confidence they draw from embracing a specific vision can infect their followers.  A leader’s certainty is powerful and can become a rallying point once the vision is communicated. 

      A coach needs to be able to capitalize on his knowledge of the needs, motivations, playing styles, and values of each member on the team.  As a coach, you will use your knowledge of these people to meld them into a cohesive unit. 

      Essential Habits For Any Leader

      Since leadership is an important foundation for any coach, it is your job to become the best leader possible.  There are several key characteristics that are common among leaders. Building these habits into your life will improve your ability to lead.

      Be Optimistic – People want to be around others who view life as a positive venture.  As a coach, it is essential to be able to focus on the strengths of the people you are working with.  While you are clear-sighted about difficulties, problems, and weaknesses, you view these not as impossible show-stoppers but as opportunities for you and others to grow and learn.  The people in your life will love you for this.

      Be Committed – When your players can see that you are committed to their individual success and the success of the team, not only will they respect you, but your commitment will motivate them to commit to both themselves and the team.  Commitment is contagious; the more your team members sense that you’re all in, the more they will be, too. 

      Model Integrity – Not only is integrity good for your soul, research actually shows that team members want their coaches to be moral.  Honesty truly is the best policy.  Always treat your team members with equal respect and be straightforward in your communications.  This is not a time to be coy.  Your uprightness models the behavior you want from your players and sets the stage for the development of trust and honest relationships.

      Focus – A great leader knows how to focus on the details that will lead both individual players and the whole team to success.  As a coach you will eliminate everything but the key items your players need in order to make progress toward your mutual vision for the future. You will train your focus and that of your players on these few things.

      Supportiveness – People give their best performances when they feel safe, heard, and valued.  For example, if a team member fears being punished for snitching he may hold back important information about another player’s dishonesty.
