Lacrosse, through my viewpoint, helps me everyday. First, some benefits lacrosse has given me are learning to be a team player, a leader as the goalie, and skills in communicating from player to player. For example, I have to conduct my defense if the team will function. I am always trying to direct and figure out who to watch as a threat, who is open, and who needs to pick up a driving player. These beneficial components in my life from lacrosse show me how to be a friend and part of a team, and a leader when others need quick guidance. In addition, some lessons lacrosse has taught me are that you cannot always win, you have to play as a team, and to loosen up. First, being a goalie, it is stressful when the team gets down and we might not win. I feel responsible for the loss and feel extremely upset when I let my team down. As my

All my life, my parents have taught me to express emotion, hard work, and perseverance through lacrosse. While playing has its own downfalls, such as injuries and time consumption, the game builds character for its players. Playing sports through my years of maturing has taught me leadership, control of emotions, and the concept that success comes from hard work. Through middle school and high school, I participated in the association of Flower Mound Lacrosse. Lacrosse was not popular in Texas, so everyone was a beginner; that included myself.

Study suggests it may have developed as early as the 1,100’s amongst indigenous people.By the 1,700’s, it was apparently well established, documented by Jesuit missionary priests in what we now know as Canada. The game has evolved a lot differently since then. In the traditional Canadian version, each team consisted of about one hundred to one thousand men on a field just about the size of a modern soccer field. The games lasted for two to three days, from sunrise, to sunset, played as a ceremonial type of ritual, like a symbolic warfare to thank the creators.

I was able to find a few sources that the information was related to my question. I found that the best way of finding information or finding sources was to use the lacrosse SA website which lead me to a page with all websites with valid information on lacrosse. I was able to sort through all this information and find all the relevant information on lacrosse clinics or anything to do with coaching. I found that researching coaching was a good idea because I could relate a few of the coaching techniques to coaching a lacrosse

Freezing in the morning, the grassy fields at the Uihlein soccer complex were let off a cracking every step. The excitement of playing in my first ever varsity lacrosse game kept me hyped up on the day of its arrival. Grinning widely, wearing sapphire blue, I strutted to the bench for our team, Brookfield Lacrosse. As the tournament was preparing to start, the sound of Eminem’s music played through the speakers and parents chattered in the stands before the first game between Arrowhead and my team. All that was running through my mind at the time was, “Don’t underperform. Make a statement to the coaches.”

The purpose of this research is to uncover the training techniques used by coaches historically and current emerging trends within the sport of hockey. The goal when starting to research this topic was to identify what has worked in the past but more specifically the developing trends used by the professionals in the sport. The reason for researching trends in training among hockey coaches was to educate myself on the direction of coaching within the field of hockey. Growing up playing competitive hockey the training and development within this topic is personally important as I plan to obtain my coaching certificate in the very near future in the hopes of potentially one day making a career out of it.

The realm of collegiate athletics is made up of participants that hail from all walks of life. In many instances the athletic programs that make up the university can be considered the most diverse group on campus. The will to win largely attracts participants from every conceivable ethnic and demographic background. The diversity and racial composition of athletic programs can provide opportunities for athletes to learn about people who are different than themselves, help improve interracial understanding, and help reduce prejudice among groups. Although diversity among student athletes is a favorable goal, it is important that the coaches, athletic counselors, or anyone working with student athletes have practices and procedures in place to immerse athletes within the culture of collegiate athletics. The ability to succeed will be determined by the athlete and the programs ability to function within a multilevel system that includes knowledge of the NCAA rules and regulations, university policies, athletic department standards, and team dynamics (Fletcher, 2003).

While organizing and presenting learning experience to children, the teacher can utilize different methods, ranging from a direct, teacher-centered approach to an indirect, more student-centered approach.Recently, the mode of teaching sport and PE has shifted from the teacher-centered style to towards the student-centered style, in which the teacher has less influence in the decision-making, and the student becomes the prime decision maker (Baker et al., 2009, pp. 77-89). This is important because it can help to develop a player having innate understanding of what is going on around them for instance, on a football field, and has the talent to influence the game. In a bid to reach the aim of this paper, an outline of academic theories of child development, learning theories and professional philosophies, roles played by generic teachers, PE specialists, and community sport coaches will be provided. In addition, key stages in the National Curriculum and steps set out in the Long-Term Athlete Development (LTAD) framework will be

The coach tirelessly pursues personal education, formally and informally, both in the performance related sciences and in liberal arts. He sees the journey to coaching excellence as a never ending story; seen not only in terms of a chosen sport and coaching theory and practice, but in understanding how to successfully live a balanced and full life, while facing tougher and tougher challenges in the chosen field of endeavour.

With the opportunity of a fresh start in front of us, I believe now is the time to make the changes this program needed five plus seasons ago. My first year on the team was both very exciting and intimidating. It couldn’t have been more than two days into the season before I was taken under the wing of senior captain Laura. She began to teach me the ropes of the program I would dream of leading myself one day. As a new captain, Laura explained to me her goals as a leader and what she hoped to bring to the Prior Lake Girls’ Hockey Team. As I look back to the very beginning of my high school hockey career, I have yet to see this team achieve the goals Laura set that year. What I will write about is what I have learned what makes some leaders more successful than other, and why
