Coaching Style

Your coaching style will have a large effect on your coaching philosophy. Start by setting some goals for your team. What you want your team to accomplish? What do you want them to get out of this experience? What’s most important - winning or getting along with each other and getting everyone equal playing time?



In other words, set priorities. If you’re coaching a youth level team, simply getting everyone some playing time might be your top priority. This will most likely not be the case, however, if you’re an AAU, high school, or above coach."
