“Hear it from a player turned coach”
As a founder member of Burn Basketball academy and serving as a coach for more than 20 years, I have worked with children from grass root training to elite levels. These aspiring kids and parents invest in the sport and also look up to coaches to build wholesome individuals with good life skills. To do this its important to develop rapport with young kids and be a role model.
I have done this by adopting an empathetic approach while being strict and disciplined. I understood the needs of each player and provided the appropriate reinforcement and feedback.
My sessions and interactions will give coaches an insight into the importance of being a transformational coach and provide their wards with the needed support to evolve as players.
