I coach to develop humans first and players second. To me, in coaching, there is nothing more important than raising youngsters to be good humans. My aim as a coach is always that I can pass on the positive influences I’ve been fortunate enough to experience in my short lifetime. Therefore, I try to keep the following quote in mind anytime I am coaching, “treat people how you want to be treated.” I.e. give players the same respect I would like to receive and encourage players to carry on that behavior throughout their lives.
