In Topic: Cap & Impact

29 July 2005 - 10:44 AM

I totally agree with you Ron. I like the IMPACT class for basic lower level coaching like grade school. It has the basics of coaching theory. Once youstart doingthe CAP I and II you are getting into more technical stuff you may never use. It is a good thing to have on a resume if you are goin to be coaching for a while. But I guarantee you will not use a lot of the stuff unless, like Ron said, you have a team thst can pass the ball.

I have a son that played a few sports. The main thing I look for in a coach is knowledge. If you are ready for practice, can teach skills and keep the players engaged in practice you will be fine. I think that parents want their kids to learn and have fun - if you can accomplish that it will be good.

I would recommende taking the IMPACT course as it is great for begining coaches. Many grade schools and all club teams require this in order to coach . CAP I is mainly for high school coaches and is more advanced than the IMPACT. CAP II is for college and international coaching and is the most advanced class USAV offers. If coachingis something you are going to stay with I would take IMPACT definately.

That is a tough one...in my experience it takes time for them to feel comfortable and watch the ball all the way into their hands. Maybe a drill that has a ball immediately tossed as soon as the first was hit will help them remain focused on the ball(s) coming at them. Have them move to the ball also forces them to watch the ball at least ubtil they can get to the correct position to pass.

In Topic: Team Rules

I don't coach baseball but here are the rules I use for my volleyball team.

1. RESPECT others.  your teammmates, the coaches, the parents, the other team, the referees, etc.  

2. Don't be afraid to make a mistake...that is how we all learn. The trick is to figure out what went wrong and fix it.

3. Parents need to remain supportive of their children and the teams playing the game. Any parent exhibiting unsportsmanlike behavior can be asked to leave the playing area.

Just a couple of the basics. I will look in my file drawer as I know I do have an old list I used to use.
