Empathy/kindness:
demonstrating empathy in my interactions with athletes, parents, and
staff and showing that I care about their well-being, both on and off the field. Creating a
safe space where athletes can express their thoughts, feelings, and concerns without fear of
judgment. Planning team-building activities that require cooperation and teamwork.
Encouraging athletes to listen to their teammates and teach them active listening.
Recognizing and celebrating acts of empathy within the team. After games or practices,
encouraging athletes to reflect on their interactions and behaviors.
Integrity: teaching athletes integrity is essential for their character development and
sportsmanship. I will set clear standards of ethical behavior for my athletes and try to
demonstrate integrity in my own actions. I also aim to Encourage athletes to hold each
other accountable for their actions to help promote integrity within the group. I will also
assure consistency in rules and consequences and will always treat all athletes the same
and fairly. I will share real life examples of ethical dilemmas and stories of other athletes
who faced consequences due to a lack of integrity to demonstrate its importance.
