OUR COACHING PHILOSOPHY
Our coaches are keen to:
-
Understand the main reasons why children / adults play sport/s
-
Act as role models
-
Use a Positive Approach in their Coaching
WHY CHILDREN PLAY SPORT
The number one reason children play sport/s is for enjoyment and to have fun. Other reasons typically include:
-
Improving their skills
-
Playing with friends
-
Do something they are good at. If they perceive the experience to be positive, they will be motivated to try harder. Greater effort leads to advancement in skills.
APPROACH TO POSITIVE OUTCOME
-
We will try and raise the player’s positive beliefs, instilling in them the conviction that they are better than they think they are.
-
We will expect the best because then there is some chance the player will give their best.
-
We will try and focus on their potential – by cultivating the strengths to help the player develop their resolve and resilience to deal with the negatives and setbacks that happen in sport.
-
We will behave in a manner that can be summed up as “what we do is more important that what we say”. We understand our responsibility is to be a good role model to the players and everyone involved in the team, supporting the team, or umpiring the matches.
THE MARGARET RIVER WAY OF PLAYING – ON THE FIELD
There are three main objectives:
-
To play with determination and effort, but always fair and within the rules and spirit of the game.
-
To play with a positive approach – quick, skilful movement of the ball when in possession and encouraging your teammates.
-
To play defensively when our opponents have the ball – everyone is a defender in this situation.
THE MARGARET RIVER WAY OF PLAYING – OFF THE FIELD
There are three main objectives:
-
To train to the best of your ability and listen to your coach (coaches).
-
To be punctual and prepared for training and games.
-
Notify your coach and/or team as soon as you can if you are unavailable to play.
