This is a great article,by Brooke De Lench, discussing the differences in coaching girls and guys! This has been on my mind for the past hmm month or so and I thought I would blog about it. Girls are obviously way different then guys and being a girl understand how girls think! Well for the most part, sometimes I don't know why we do things haha. But anyways when I play sports I get into them, I'm very competitive, but when someone yells at me you might as well ask kick me out haha!! Either your getting my attitude or I'm gonna be mad the whole time ,or most girls will just not care as much and not try as hard because you yelled at them. We don't do well at all with someone yelling at us! Most girls don't mind losing a game if they had fun. I still hate losing but that's just me;P On the other hand guys are mostly concerned about winning, the guys I know at least. Guys can handle you yelling at them so much better than girls can because, when girls get stressed they aren't able to learn and focus as well. Even though I don't think any coach should yell at there players, they should respect them and they will be respected more in return. Also when correcting a girl you should tell her something she does good and then correct her in a calm ,soft voice, trust me it will help so much!!!
To those who have a coach that tries hard but doesn't practice this philosophy, all I can say is that you must do your best to be respectful. This is easier said then done; I know first hand because I've yelled at my coaches before," guilty as charged" haha but I went back and said sorry that's the least I could do. Don't lose hope, don't let your coaches make you not want to play! Forgive,forget and move on because Life Goes On!! Good luck!:))
