#2 Be Holistic
Develop chiildren in your sessions as people first and foremost, not only as athletes.
Aim to develop their psychosocial skills and capabilities, not just their physical ones.
1
Who are the young people in front of you? How much do you know about them as human beings?
2
Children are smart. Let them show you through their ability to find and solve problems.
3
Sport is just a fraction of their lives. They have other interests too. Ask questions like: How are you? And How was school today?
4
There are lots of physical, technical and psychosocial skills to learn. Be sure to give kids the time to have a go and practice them.
