Is the coach a good guy or bad one?

" He was my coach and I was his goalkeeper." /A.Irbe

In my opinion, during the practice and a game the coach is like your father. The person you can trust and you are the person been trusted. Playing in a team makes us a big family. In women team it's relationship called "sisters and father" in men team it's " brothers and father" relationships. I haven't played in team jet where the coach is a women, but I hope one day I will experience it too. The both kinds should be quite similar to my understanding about this relationships, but I might be wrong.

Daughter and Father relationship.
As a player you have to show your best to get the sympathies and trust from the coach's side. The coach, the father, have to accept and see your abilities and skills, give feedback when it's necessary and keep the communication on air for all the time. For a player it's important to listen and catch this information to get and reach the perfection, easily saying become the best or most valuable player as a defender, forward or goalie during the strive to excellence. (read: How to give your best performance) Everything you do, you do it for yourself and your development not because someone else said than you have to, but than you said it to yourself than you just have to do it to come closer to your best performance.

To be a coach is a seriously tough role. As a coach you have to see all your "daughters" working together and find the best match. As a coach you have to see the personality of each other girl, have to find the way how to talk with them and find the way how to get out of them what you want or what you see in your vision. As a coach you have to know and have to see the skills, ambitions and goals in every player.

As a coach you have to love every player as the way they are like their father. And every player should reach for perfectionism in self to become the best in action and communication with leaders and "sisters". Not only the coach have to see the skills in others, not only the coach have to give a feedback.


The all community of one Team is like a spider web or two or three spider webs together. Depends how big community is. There will always be the crossing, matching point for every part of that web. At the matching point all kind of communications comes together and every thread in this web is so important. Tighten together it becomes so strong than it's almost impossible to broke it. That's what makes perfectionism of the Team.

Edited: 
One day I feel like I want to become a coach. And my answer to this question is: There is no good or bad coach. Coach is a person surrounded by players and his coaching is equal to players ambitions and power of will to become best. (?)Is there bad coaching? If there is, would you (as a coach) call yourself a coach if you wouldn't do your best same as players do? (Do players do their best? )
Coach is a person who decides this role (to be good or bad one). The person who asks and wants so much for perfectionism than sometimes he have to give up on it and try to push, get out of others maximum they are ready to give. I might say sometimes as a player we forget to give more understanding to them and show more power of will. Coach is a team player. Same as all of us. We are here to give our 100%. Same as they. Respect that too!

  1. There are perhaps no good or bad coaches, but there can be good and bad coaching. There are many variables to consider in terms of what makes a good coach, but like players, they should focus on their strengths and build their style from there. Then again, would you prefer a coach can't coach but can motivate rather than a coach that can coach but can't motivate...
