Obsticle: A Career As A Coach

When I grow up I want to become a teacher/coach. For me to do that I am going to have to go to Texas A&M University (TAMU). I would rather become a coach than become a teacher because I actually like sports and I am not the biggest fan of school. The only reason I am going to be a teacher too is because you can’t get many jobs being just a coach. You usually have to teach too.

The New York Jets are actively pursuing free agent quarterback Kirk Cousins. With four quarterbacks expected to go early in the 2018 NFL Draft, here’s why Gang Green should not waste their time signing him.

Just like Martin Luther King, I, Keltin Beazley have a dream. One day I will be the most known college basketball coach to ever coach the game. Coaching takes patience, time, effort, basketball I.Q. and most of all commitment. Coaching basketball has always been something I’ve considered because I’m just so darn good at playing basketball!

My topic is similar to yours. I have always been intrigued to examine the relationship between coach and athlete. In my experience, I have found coaches who provide positive support and are constructive with their criticism are more enjoyable to play for and give the athlete a more positive experience. Coaches that come across as condescending seem to push kids away from the game. It is important that the student-athlete has a positive experience, especially student-athletes at a young age. I feel if a student-athlete has a negative experience at the interscholastic level he or she will be less likely to stick with the sport.

I will inspire athletes to demonstrate good character. Sports do not have an influence on one’s character; however, coaches can strongly impact athletes’ character, both negatively and positively. For this reason, I will work to coach in ways that support the growth of athletes’ character and create learning opportunities and situations in which athletes can practice and learn from. As a coach, I will lead by example and demonstrate good character because actions speak louder than words. I will do this by embodying sportsmanship and respecting athletes, opponents, other coaches, and referees. I will also show this to athletes by respecting, caring, and being trustworthy. I will also lead by example by staying

What is your coaching philosophy? (The beliefs and principles that will serve as your guide to action)

I first want to touch on the management principles that are evident in the BCS Athletic Director role. A huge part of being an athletic director is planning, organizing, leading, and evaluating (Masteralexis 29). The BCS Athletic Director must plan to be successful (Masteralexis 29). The athletic director must always be writing down goals and ideas so that they can do their job successfully. When they write down their plans and goals there are no missed dates or missed appointments, just efficiency. This is extremely important because in this job one missed call to book a referee could cost the position. Another aspect that is important in this role is the idea of organizing (Masteralexis 29). After planning everything out, all of these actions need to be completed. The BCS Athletic Director must be in charge of setting up events as well as providing directions for referees and preparing the playing

If a group of students were asked who the biggest influence in their life was, many would say some kind of coach. The general thought that comes to mind when discussing coaching is athletic coaches, but coaching has a much broader spectrum. The major difference between a coach and other leaders is commitment. Coaches help build plans for success for their followers and then follow their progress until the goal is completed.

My mind was set to pursue a career in coaching after my undergrad. Leading into my first year as college football coach, I relied mainly on my personal and prior experience during college as a football player. I wanted to provide the players with support and guidance I did not experience having as a player. During my first year as an assistant coach, I managed to influence some players following my main objective in my first year as a coach. Going into my second year, I was promoted with my own position group, running backs (RB), to coach without having to shadow another position coach as an assistant. I was excited, passionate, and overwhelmingly ready to guide this group of young men into a spiritual, motivational direction using my personal experience and my prior knowledge of football to support my coaching goals and objectives.

Throughout my childhood I have always had a passion for soccer. I loved to watch and play soccer whenever I could. During my freshman year of highschool I got the opportunity to take my dedication to the sport to the next level and was asked to coach a family friends youth team. As a coach on a youth soccer team I learned valuable lessons to further my leadership qualities, but this position required a vast amount of leadership from the start. I was expected to be committed to my team and was responsible for creating the motivation and heart I have for soccer in the children I was coaching.

Sports coaches can either operate in a professional or voluntary role depending on what coach you want to become. The price range for this particular job can vary from millions to nothing. An example of a high profile manager is Pep Guardiola who just recently signed a three year deal with Manchester City for 15 million euros per year. Skills required to become a sports manager include communication skills, motivational talks and speeches. Planning ahead of time, quick decision making, desire to want to develop those who are participating. Coaches can be made to work in many different environments from playing fields and tracks to gyms, in all kinds our weather conditions. Becoming a sports coach may have an impact on your personal life due

At the conclusion of my junior year of high school, I immediately began preparations for my final cross country season. By that point in my life, the only time I actually thought about baseball was when the New York Yankees were playing on television. Otherwise, I spent every day that summer either out running or thinking about running. I also spent a lot of time researching and reading about the history of running, different training methods, and ideas put forth by other coaches from around the world. During that summer, if someone had asked me what I wanted to do with the rest of my life, the answer would've been simple. I wanted to coach.

When I think of coaching I think of practice planning, game planning, scouting strategizing of offense and defense, choosing my starters, little things like that. All of those ideas are valid, but that’s not the whole picture. There is a lot more to coaching than planning for a practice or a game. Many times a person who would like to coach an interschool athletic team has little or no preparation to teach sports skills and techniques. The only qualifications is often the person’s participation on his or her high school, college, or university’s team, coach of a community youth team or even perhaps as a professional player. While all that experience is valuable in one way or another, it does not constitute an adequate preparation for

Choosing a career is one of the most important decisions a person will make in their life. Most people try to pick the career with the best financial gain and something they would like to do for the rest of their life. Foremost it is wise to see what the job entails. Sport Management is perfect for those who enjoy helping and working with people, especially when dealing with sports. The next part of the decision-making process is looking through the various schooling and training required. Lastly, take into consideration the advantages and disadvantages. Usually with great salaries comes a big responsibility with high stress. “The sports industry in the U.S. is a $200-billion-dollar-plus powerhouse, with superstar

Upon successful completion of this project I will identify an existing problem of a team that I am a part of and I will act as team leader and develop a coaching plan to solve this problem. I will use my current place of employment as an example. As team leader, I will lead the resolution to the problem and build a more cohesive and productive team.
