Today, more than 68 million children and adolescents participate in
sport programs in the United States. Yet despite the growth and
popularity of highly-organized athletic competition, controversy
still swirls around the role that adults, particularly coaches,
play in the world of youth sports. Coaches not only occupy a
critical leadership position in the athletic setting, but their
influence can extend into other areas of life as well. Sport
Psychology for Youth Coaches is a practical "how-to" guide that
helps coaches use their leadership role to achieve optimal benefits
for young athletes, both on and off the field/court. It is designed
to help coaches create rewarding experiences for young athletes and
provides specific behavioral guidelines that have proven to have
positive, and lasting, effects. The authors address a wide range of
everyday concerns including motivation, stress reduction,
psychological skills, relations with parents, legal
responsibilities, and other areas of importance to both coaches and
athletes. Using clear examples and real stories, they help coaches
hone their own skills so they can bring out the best in their young
competitors - in sports and in life. No coach should be without
this essential guide, whose principles have been successfully
applied and tested on thousands of coaches around the world.
