My husband is a football coach at the school and receives very little recognition. Of course, this is partly because most people do not know what is really involved in training. Anyway, this article is to remedy the!
appreciate the amount of time a coach is in school, away from home and family. Since the beginning of August to late October (more if the team wins a playoff spot), a coach stays of 3-4 hours after school almost every day and 7-8 hours at night party. On Saturday, someone has to drive and video sharing equipment with other team coaches next week, and Sundays, coaches dissect videos of your own team and the opposing team. After the season, lifting weights and conditioning continues throughout the winter and spring. Even when school is in the summer, coaches are running in the school of weightlifting and conditioning drills and going to the football fields of several in the area. This never ends, and in most cases, the pay is not compatible with excessive hours.
appreciate high school coaches to have to deal with parents, both during school hours and in time staff. At most, they get sidelined by obsessive fans gaming enthusiasts who want to discuss strategy and give advice. Then the parents who sincerely believe that your child can put an athlete at quarterback for USC and are offended by the lack of playing time or that his son was disciplined. At worst, some parents the issue of death threats and / or start petitions to fire coaches did not like (no kidding ).
coaches appreciate dealing with adolescents. One player told my husband, "F --- you!" on the second day of practice this year. 'Nuff said.
coaches appreciate the extra features that come with the job, such as keeping the main football field and field practice watered, cut, edge, and painted. They spend their weekends washing and drying of team uniforms. And the coaches do most of the required maintenance on the house and changing rooms. If a pipe breaks in the irrigation system, usually a coach who dig.
