LMVSC | For the BEST Club Parents in Virginia

As we gear up for an amazing Spring Season,

here are a few tips/reminders!

-Respect for the game, referees, players, spectators, & coaches should be the center piece

-Coaching from the sidelines does more harm than good "let the players play"

-Positive reflections and interactions with the players after a game are more beneficial to the players development. Your children are intelligent; to spark their thinking and personal development here are some sample questions to engage your player after a game:

-Example Questions: "How do you think the game went?"
"Why do you think the game went that way?"
"That's a great observation, do you think anything could have been done differently?"
"How do you think you did?"

LMVSC | For the BEST Recreational Coaches in Virginia

As we gear up for the Spring Season,

here are some helpful tips/reminders!

- As Coaches, we have one of the most important roles in a young childs life; we personally owe them a debt to give them everything we have

- The job of a Coach can be difficult, it can be frustrating, and it can certainly be stressful; when the thinking is switched from "why can't they do this" to "did you see them do that" the job becomes much easier and MUCH more rewarding

- Children respond more effectively from positive interaction, than negative

- It is important to give guidance, but not play the game for the players

- ONE voice should be coming from the sideline

- It is important to remember that there is a possibility you may be the best part of a child's day
