This course help me understand the parent side of things a little more. It helped me word and connect with parents on another level.
Great Course
Really enjoyed the videos and information I learned.
This course has been uplifting in that it supports much of what we are already doing as a soccer program while at the same time it has provided us sneak peeks into things we can do to be even better in supporting the lives of student-athletes.
95% Perfect!
This course provide a great framework that aligns well with the 3D training. A transformational coach will have all they need in terms of methods and strategies to help with obtaining alignment with parents. Most coaches don't leave coaching becasue of the players. They leave because of the parents.
Very good material. Would like to have scene a few more concrete examples of way to DEAL with parents (especially difficult ones)
Obtaining alignment between Coaches and Parents explores the partnership that should be in place among those stakeholders in a healthy program. The course consistently focuses on the aspects of the relationship that the coach can control and those that the coach can influence, emphasizing the role of purpose and the power of being a 3D Coach.
I felt that this course offered some excellent specific tools to apply to ones program.
Great Info - Thanks
3D should be instituted in all school districts, for the good of the student/athlete AND for the good of the coach!
I was a successful coach for 35 years and used many similar techniques with my athletes. It was some of the most treasured times in my life and the relationships with parents and athletes are treasured. I wish I had this opportunity when I was a young coach, I wonder what would have been the outcomes.
I have always excluded parents from all my sports teams. It was going to be my way or the highway. Through taking this course, I have seen how I have been missing the mark. Bridging the gap with parents is key. Thank you for addressing, and giving examples of ways of uniting parents, and coaches.
The course did a very nice job of describing how the relationship between coaches and parents is essential in building a successful program. The tips and advice given was vety helpful and would benefit any coach.
We are preparing a presentation to give in Churches for Youth Coaches. This course has provided some great insight and examples to use in the Parent Coach Segment. This course is a natural extension of the 3D Coaching Course and addresses one of the most difficult situations in coaching today.
Great stuff
The Parent/Coach bridge is always something that needs to be looked at and refined to help the student-athlete enjoy the sport they participate in.
Excellent course from start to finish!
I don't know if there is a perfect science/formula on how to deal with parents, but this course has great content in how to build a relationship with parents, gain their trust and ultimately have them help you to build a program.
