WHAT IS EFFECTIVE COACHING & MENTORING ?

It is the ability to help the pupil(s) acquire a new or modified behaviour, either mentally, physically or both. Effective coaching ultimate goals in my opinion are:

1. To help increase the players competence
2. To enhance the players enjoyment and satisfaction of their sport.
3. To help the player develop as a person through sport.
4. To help them understand the relevance and importance of values that will be the compass that guides them through their journey into the direction of goals and dreams.
