Coaches and Parents… If you see your athlete do something that is not acceptable to you, here are some questions to ask yourself before you talk to them.
• Is the time right? Some situations require immediacy but seldom as effective during or right after competition and not with other people around…
• Did I really see it correctly? Was it truly a violation of our family (team) values or was it just an irritation?
