I want to be a Junior Swim Coach because I want to help teach the young swimmers not only how to swim, but to have fun while they are doing it. I also want to be a Junior Swim Coach because I remember how much I learned from my junior coaches and how much fun it was being on the Junior Swim Team. Because of this, I would like to give every Junior Swimmer the same experience I had. I think I am a good fit for the program because I work very well with kids. I am able to have fun with them and be a leader to them at the same time. I believe that having an “out-of-the-water” relationship with the kids I coach is a vital quality in being a good coach and mentor. I think I am able to have a good relationship with the kids and bond with them while
For the past four years, I’ve been a cheerleader for Van Nuys Senior High School, granted that for two years I’ve been the captain. On surface level, a captain’s only job is to be the communicator, and representative for the coach as well as the team. As captain I performed responsibilities such as leading team conditioning, choreographing for the team, in addition to making sure the team is always ready. However, through cheer-leading I’ve learned that, holding the title “captain” is much more than that.
I have been swimming year-round on a club team since the age of six and when I was younger improving came relatively easily. However, around age 13, I hit a training plateau despite having the same work ethic and focus that I had previously had. I grew to despise swimming and at points I wanted to quit. However, unlike Junior, I had role models and mentors who were positive influences on me and who helped me to overcome this challenge. Primarily, I had several of my best friends on the team who convinced me to keep persevering and to not simply quit the sport that I loved so much just because I was no longer dropping time. For example, every day I watch my close friends Lizanne and Cate come to practice and give it their all, regardless of the numerous injuries and medical issues that plagued their swimming career; their positive outlook and dedication motivated me to try even harder than I had before. Moreover, I had by parents, something that Junior did not have; my parents were always there to support me after yet another disappointing meet reminding me that “you get five minutes for a win and five minutes for a lost”. My parents where my voice of reason as I tried to work through my issues; they were always there to encourage me, but also were very honest with me
Ever experienced cheer camp a famous college? Surround by its famous color orange and blue? Well, I did! A tremendous amount of people have their different ideas an exciting experience in their life. Although out of all of the exciting experiences I’ve ever experienced , I would have to say my favorite is when I visited The University of Florida for cheer camp my sophomore year. I was overly excited about spending four days at The University of Florida; I stayed up all night the night before packing and getting ready to finally stay at a college for four days with my fellow cheer sisters. From that experience I learned a lot about sticking together as a team, and friendship! But, most importantly, I learned that bonding together as a team is what got us to finish strong at the end. Those four days really opened my eyes to a lot of different things and I’m glad I can say that I really enjoyed myself.
As I have asserted, coaching is far more than winning or losing. A coach is an essential cog in shaping qualities such as sportsmanship, competitiveness, self discipline, and work ethic. A quality coach can build a player up while a bad coach can tear them down. My goal as a coach was to always leave the player striving to be the best they could be. A good coach
I have cheered for many years and have always been a hard worker and a leader. Not only do I participate in cheerleading but I am a member of the spanish club, powerlifting team, beta club, PAL club, track, and am I member of the boles concert band, and on top of that I have had A honor roll for the the past two years and have maintained perfect attendance all year. I am noting this because I know that as a cheerleader we should represent the school so I do not only put my all into cheerleading but into everything that I do. I believe I am well suited to become the 2018-2019 Boles High School Cheer Captain because I am serious when needed to be, creative, and a natural leader.
Youth sports can be a learning experience or it can be a health risk to the athletes. Youth sports can teach young children the value of hard work and discipline or it can be emotionally and physically damaging. Three main points are how sports keep you healthy, how they build character, and the values that they will learn from sports and how they will use in the future. These three ideas prove that youth sports can be healthy, they build character, and can teach them the value of hard work and discipline for your kid.
I hear the crunch under my feet and the smell of the salt in the air. I hear the waves crashing and see the boat coming. With my entire Junior Lifeguard group we jogged towards the south side shore of Seal Beach. The first half of my group had already gone to do boat drops, but it was my turn now. My instructor Jeremy was with us and we were getting ready to swim out to the length of tower zero. As I waded into the water I could feel the shock of the cool, crisp wind blowing against it. Once we got out to tower zero I could see the boat nearing. We floated in the chopping water as the boat was getting ready to help us in. One at a time the lifeguards on the boat would tell us to put our back to the swim step and give them our hands, which were
My coaching philosophy will come from many experiences I’ve had over the years with different coaches. I’ve played on many different teams and was able to observe many different personalities in coaches. So I know what I like and what I do not like in a coach. I am blessed to have been around so many coaches, because after college I will want to coach for a living. The best part of me wanting to be a coach is that I’ve been in the player’s position, so I will understand more than others.
My senior project is about being a coach and how it can be difficult and not an easy task. I wanted to show others that being a coach is something that takes time and effort in order to accomplish it. Being a coach is not a fun job but it is a job that will help you in the future. Coaching is an experience that not a lot of people get to go through but those who do become not just better people but they become teachers to others in troubling times and in time of need. Coaching gives you and also shows you that being helpful and courteous to others actually helps you out as a person and it also helps out the players you’re coaching to be better people and to be kind and not take things in the wrong way and to show them a better way that will help them in their life.
The reason I want to be a softball coach, is because I love the sport. I have played the sport for as long as I can remember, and I do not want to ever not be doing something that involves softball. So because I love softball, I would be able to put as much into coaching the sport as when I was playing the sport. It would not be me just coaching the sport because I had nothing else to do or to be.
I am a college football coach. The reason I chose this is because the money is very good. I want to go win a National Championship. I want to work my team to be the best. I want to coach the best players in the country. I want to have a good coaching career record.
Coaching, however challenging, is a great way to influence the lives of others while also building their character. For as long as there have been sports, there have been people teaching the sport to the players and making them better at it. Coaches must have certain qualities in order to obtain success. One must also look at a coach’s motivation for his job, his passion for what he does, his methods for coaching, and how he became a coach in order to fully understand him. There are many questions someone may want to ask a coach about his profession if they are interested in coaching.
This report focused on Peer Coaching as the coaching relationship brings to light what the person being coached already knows, but may not know he or she knows, and then helping the persons to make decisions and take action so he or she can move forward to some goal he or she has or a dream he or she wants to achieve. Coaching is a method of facilitating affirmative change that impacts an organizational leader’s performance, development of particular skills, which leads to a broader sense of personal growth.
My personal philosophy is: I am a coach because of my love for the game and my wanting to teach this passion to others. I believe that playing a sport will not only prepare a child to win, but also for life and the challenges that come with it. I will strive to help every athlete to compete to the best of their ability, while ensuring that are learning skills that will later on better them in their everyday lives.
For the last year, my sports department in my high school decided to make me the Coach of sport’s team. As an athlete’s leader it was a good opportunity for me to show my leadership skills, talent, intelligence, enthusiasm, self-efficacy and conscientiousness. Being a coach of my team, I had recognized my responsibilities to motivate the team members. Give them full support and direction to attain the team’s goal. I also tried to help my team members to energize their capabilities and
