​​​​​​​"It takes 20 years to become an overnight success. Successful coaches have by a combination of experience, skill, education and practice, developed ways and means of getting the best out of themselves and their athletes".

  • Plan
  • Develop communication skills and never stop trying to improve on them
  • Be open-minded. Never say, never
  • Learn from your mistakes
  • Believe in your athletes - they believe in you
  • Develop a network and support structure
  • Have fun. Life is short
  • Give an ounce of information and a ton of practice
  • Be flexible in your methods and approach
  • Try not to over-coach. You don't need to talk all the time
