Episode 10 Guest: Sara Martin (Former volleyball coach)
- Hear stories from a coach who fell in and out of love with coaching...
- We are all TOO ACCESSIBLE these days. Cell phones make it instant gratification/communication. Remember phone trees?
- The golden years of coaching: Before it gets too serious and it's still about the love of the game.
- Club sports aren't for the best players anymore, they are for everyone.
- Doing what's "best for the team" is harder and harder to get players AND parents to buy into.
- Everyone is on board for what's best for the team until it impacts THEM.
- "Parent Goggles"
- The unique challenges that women coaches face: Family, sacrifices, stereotypes, being treated differently than their male counterparts, etc.
- "For male coaches winning is the expectation. For female coaches, winning is not enough."
- 98% of parents are supportive. The 2% can drive coaches away from the profession.
