The Assistant Coach's Guide to Coaching - Coaching Mastery - E-book - ePub

Assistant coaches are the unsung heroes of any team. All too often, their impact and importance go unnoticed. While head coaches receive the majority of the attention, assistant coaches are right there-side by side with their head coaches-helping to guide their teams to the success they seek. Most head coaches fully understand how fortunate they are to have great assistants on their staffs. They also understand that how well they and their assistant coaches navigate their relationships and deal with one another has a major impact on their programs. Unfortunately, not much has been written about these relationships-until now.
The Assistant Coach's Guide to Coaching is Scott Rosberg's companion book to his book, A Head Coach's Guide for Working with Assistants. In that book, Rosberg discussed how head coaches must work with their assistant coaches to develop the success they seek for their teams and programs. In this book, he shifts his attention to the assistant coaches and the impact that they have on that success. He focuses on such things as:Why Coach?Roles of Assistant CoachesCharacteristics of Good Assistant CoachesResponsibilities of Assistant CoachesAssistant Coaches Becoming Head Coaches While both books are filled with important information for each group of coaches, The Assistant Coach's Guide to Coaching is written to help assistant coaches do all that they must do to help their teams and programs become the best they are capable of becoming.
If you are an assistant coach-or considering becoming one-this book will help guide you in this important role on your coaching journey.
