Introduction Coaching is a very interesting and fun job to be able to do. There are many things that come with being a coach, good and bad. Getting used to being around more people and having to teach them plays will be something new to me. Reasoning behind choosing this career path is because I used to play so I understand the game and have a strong passion for it. My career goal is to try and become one of the best coaches there is in the NFL and make others wanna play or coach. Career-related information Nfl coaching does not require a lot of school. The Bureau of Labor Statistics recorded that “Coaches and scouts typically need a bachelor’s degree”(“ Coaches and Scouts”). They must also have extensive knowledge of the sport. Coaches typically gain this knowledge through their own experiences playing the sport at some level. High schools typically hire teachers or administrators at the school for most coaching jobs. Coaches do not have regular schedules like the normal person. Former NFL and college coaches have said “Coaches and scouts often work irregular hours, including evenings, weekends, and holidays. Professional or college coaches usually work more than 40 hours a week for several months during the sport’s season”(“ Coaches and Scouts”).Most of the time coaches will miss out on a lot of things because of their job. The average pay for coaching is not all that but it varies for each level of coaching. ”Colleges, universities, and professional schools; state,
college or university and at some colleges, the athletic director may hold academic rank. They
When I think of coaching I think of practice planning, game planning, scouting strategizing of offense and defense, choosing my starters, little things like that. All of those ideas are valid, but that’s not the whole picture. There is a lot more to coaching than planning for a practice or a game. Many times a person who would like to coach an interschool athletic team has little or no preparation to teach sports skills and techniques. The only qualifications is often the person’s participation on his or her high school, college, or university’s team, coach of a community youth team or even perhaps as a professional player. While all that experience is valuable in one way or another, it does not constitute an adequate preparation for
I will inspire athletes to demonstrate good character. Sports do not have an influence on one’s character; however, coaches can strongly impact athletes’ character, both negatively and positively. For this reason, I will work to coach in ways that support the growth of athletes’ character and create learning opportunities and situations in which athletes can practice and learn from. As a coach, I will lead by example and demonstrate good character because actions speak louder than words. I will do this by embodying sportsmanship and respecting athletes, opponents, other coaches, and referees. I will also show this to athletes by respecting, caring, and being trustworthy. I will also lead by example by staying
Since football is a team based activity and there is a great degree physical contact, football coaches may need to give players incentive and motivate maximum effort. They also may need to travel for away games and other sporting events. Coaches normally work late nights and long weekends, when a great deal of football games are scheduled.
So many Coaches have talent and dedication for what they do. I 'm proud to play for one that has a spectacular history of coaching. That coach is Dennis Lorio, who Graduated from LSU (Louisiana State University) with an economic degree and played baseball. “I love the intensity and the relationship in football” Coach Lorio explaining with a passionate expression. I can see it in his eyes that he is very dedicated and hardworking coach. As of now he is 62 years old and still willing to coach. “It’s not the same without coaching. The joy and the sorrow I feel during the season has been addicted to me. I’ve been in this game almost all my life and that is a very long time.”
In the current “win now NFL”, head coach’s seats are luke warm before the first whistle in training camp with their new team. Since the hot trend is to find an extremely young inexperienced guy to fill the main position on an NFL coaching staff, long tenured coaches are few and far between.
Think of it as if the coach is a professor and the players are the students. A student isn't going to get paid for showing up to class, studying and getting a good grade on a test, so why should college football players get paid to show up to practice and play some games? With huge profit that college football brings in, it is easy to give coaches a nice salary. Some coaches can get paid as much as just short of 6 million dollars. But, should the players get a small percent of that? Gonchar states, “The N.C.A.A. classifies Division I football players as amateurs, not professionals, student-athletes, not employees, which is how colleges get away with paying them nothing.” So, that's how coaches can get paid and not the
Having a coach in life will positively influence your character and your skills. Also, having a coach doesn’t necessarily mean that your playing on a field. A coach can be anyone from a role model to a parent or guardian, a teacher, a pastor, a mentor, or sometimes even a best friend. One of the most important things for a coach to have is influence, and more important than that is that the influence he has on his players must be positive. As a leader, a coaches job is to better his players on and off of the field. This is done by developing the character of his players through encouragement and helping them understand that the game is more than just about winning. A good coach will always put the needs of his players first before he considers himself as a factor. If a coach is successful his players will develop a strong sense of self-motivation. This helps by allowing the player to
According to USA Today, the average college coach makes 1.64 million dollars per year; specifically speaking, the University of Alabama Program makes 81 million on the backs of their athletes. Why can't football players get a small amount of that? Instead, the athletes are expected to work for nothing, in fact most athletes have to get a job in order to maintain their current bills. This should never happen when coaches and colleges make millions from the
Sports are part of our lives and inspire a lot of person all around the word to become a champion. I think almost every competitive athlete aspires to complete at the Olympic Games one day and to hope to accomplish awesome performances. Few are those who reach this level and make it a living but we all know that it is possible. Some people say that you can only be an Olympic champion if you have a lot of talent but I don’t believe in this vision. I think you need way more than talent to succeed and that the key to success is hard work, passion, determination and confidence. I this text I will talk about Canadian’s performances and show why we should be proud of our athletes and I will also talk about the emplacement of the games in Rio.
It is like a manager for a big time company recruiting job position is what I compare it too. A responsibility in their job is to oversee the administrative part of the recruiting process. The first step they do for recruiting is they use all resources they can get to find kids name and get as much information about them as they can. They also get more information from when coaches go out and recruit. The biggest time for them is after spring when the coaches come back with a big list of names and they go from there and get as much information. The environment of working this job is a fun, interesting environment. You get to get out and meet new new athletes while working with the coaches. You will need college experience while working this job, a four-year bachelor’s degree is what you need to get a job as a director of player personnel. As to taking over as director of player personnel, many have played or coached that sport in their life before. Working as Director of Player Personnel, you have many skills as management, general business and accounting skills for handling scholarship and team needs such as money and things that will be needed. Most common in what they get a degree in is business, public relations or in sports management. When finding new recruits, you will need great communication skills what Troy had told me.The most significant experience needed for directors at the collegiate level
Coaches also come up with drills to help prepare for real game situations (Ferguson’s). They are also responsible for picking out their teams which is an extreme decision. They study each player and decide where the athlete belongs either on the junior varsity or varsity team. Kellar said she picked the players having in mind the benefits for the team. She said she looked into the future and compared every athlete’s abilities. She considered whether a freshman and a senior were on the same level. Kellar also said she tried to find the best mix of girls who worked best together (personal interview). A coach requires a lot of time, from going to tournaments, to going to out of town games, soccer clinics, to staying late for practice. Not only is he or she responsible for their athletes, but also the students and their everyday classes. They have to balance their coaching and teaching life, in order to maintain
Richard Branson once said, “Every risk is worth taking as long as it’s for a good cause, and contributes to a good life.” Drinking alcohol is a risk itself, let alone drinking alcohol as a teenager. Drinking can cause interferences with the brain’s communication pathways, cardiomyopathy, high blood pressure, pancreatitis, steatosis, puts you at risk for certain cancers, and weakens your immune system. These are just a portion of what drinking can do to you. As a teenager your brain and body are still developing, drinking at an early age can stunt your development. Weed has effects of major effects on your emotional well being, and you don’t know whether they will be negative or positive effects, smoking weed puts you at risk for lung and respiratory problems. Smoking weed and drinking alcohol are risks teenagers our age our taking in order to release stress or they believe it will help them have a good time. Neither drinking nor smoking are risks that contribute to a
It's good that our school is cutting an elective, so we have more class time. I think that it's a good idea, but it won't happen and having a longer lunch period would be awesome. During lunch I would chill or play football or basketball. Socialize is one thing that I might do, sometimes when I take my time eating I don't get to play basketball or socialize, but that's alright.
The truth is you need to be a coach AND you need to be a business owner.
