3D Coaching for Sport: Certification

I think it is important for many coaches to ask the question on why they are coaching and if it is about the kids first or themselves. The strategies for connecting with kids were valuable. I am glad to see how positive coaching is making a push into athletes today.

I would recommend this course because it focuses on the relationships with athletes versus just teaching them skills. It will help build life-long memories and have a lasting effect. The most valuable thing was to learn different strategies to use throughout the year to model the 2nd and 3rd dimensions of coaching.

This course was very helpful on how to relate to athletes today.

The fact that we can help our players with much more than just play a sport is so valuable to remember! I found this course inspiring and it has given me a new outlook on coaching!

The Videos about the Girls Basketball and Boys Football Team trying season were very moving. It would be easy to coach a team that wins 100% of the time, but I think to test the well of us Coaches sometimes going through a season like that will show us who we really are. It's not always about X's and O's but about getting to know your players and what motivates them; who are they and what concerns and fears they have on and off the field. I feel if you know your player and what they are about will help you on the field as well.

This course gave me healthy reminders and refreshing motivation for the upcoming seasons. I would recommend this course to other coaches. For those with less experience it would be very informative and helpful for our area's demographic, and for experienced coaches it is a great reminder.

This course gave me new ways to look at my athletes and help make them better people. I think the ideas are sound and will really work to create better coaches and athletes.

The video clips from the different movies because I could relate it to information that I have already seen. I would recommend this course because it gives a different outlook on ways to coach.

I would absolutely recommend this course to other coaches. Narrowing down my core values as a coach, and thinking more about what is really important to teach kids over the course of a season was the most valuable thing for me.

Learning different ways to approach student athletes without just focusing on their skill level was the most valuable part of this course. I would recommend this course because unfortunately, our world is so skill based and win-oriented that we as coaches need to be more aware of other factors that have significant impact on our athletes.

The most valuable thing I got out of taking this course was understanding the purpose of why I coach and being able to explain it in words. I believe that this course demonstrates the true meaning of what it means to be a coach and I would recommend it to other coaches.

I know many coaches that would greatly benefit from this course. They could use the strategies to better connect with parents and athletes and realize that there is much more to coaching than teaching 'skills.' We have a much greater impact than we think. Learning specific strategies and ways to take my coaching to the 3rd dimension was the most valuable part of this course.

I would absolutely recommend this course and I already have. I have read the book twice, taken part in a coaches book study, watched all of the videos twice and used a lot of these strategies in my coaching. I have seen and felt a difference in my coaching but more importantly, others have noticed that I have went from a transactional coach to a transformational coach.

I recommend this course to other coaches, it's great stuff.

I would definitely recommend this to other coaches. The values taught here are applicable for players and are reminders to coaches about their own approach to life. The reinforcement for the philosophy of coaching for skills AND character and heart, and techniques for accomplishing this was the most valuable part.

This course is a sound guideline for coaches to follow if they want to have an impact on their players beyond wins & losses. It reinforced my methods of coaching and provided me with new ideas to try.

I think to many coaches put much emphasis on the wrong things. I know this course changed my views on things! I would recommend it to other coaches. I have already started implementing the put ups and spotlight drills in my summer workouts! I can't wait to implement more of the skills throughout the year!

I found it truly gave value to 'how' I already feel a coach should coach. I would recommend this course for a requirement course for all new coaches. This course provides the understanding that coaching is more than 'wins'.

Learning the particular strategies in both the 2nd and 3rd dimensions was the most valuable part of this course. I know without hesitation that I will make every effort to get the information on this course to every coach that I am able to be in front of.

This course reaffirms what I believe to be true. Relationships are more important than the Jimmy's and the Joe's. Loved the whole program. Definitely would recommend to all coaches because it identifies what many student athletes are yearning for.......a coach that cares about them as a person first!
