It's interesting your comparison to the school environment and the gym. Another parent (whom is a teacher) and I (Whom sub) brought this up with the same comparison. Our daughters are the same age/grade (different cheer skill levels), for her cp the drop till your dead practices, the coach this year has has made her daughter try harder. But for my cp this year, it's made her shut down.being both an all star coach and a HS teacher, I feel that you just have to know your athletes/kids. All kids are different, some can handle really hard coaching and lots of pushing, but others may shut down in the same situation. I find this a lot on junior level and under teams, when you still have a lot of younger athletes. I think the most important thing when coaching is knowing all your kids and understanding how to adapt your coaching for each one, so that each athlete can reach his/her potential.
Well, I guess I meant either way???Whoops I thought we meant mentally.
Couldn't you have complained to the school?I remember the end of my junior year I was trying out at a new school. We had to run a mile outside, I told my coach beforehand I have asthma and would need an inhaler and she just kinda like "yea, whatever". So I did one lap (we had to do like 4) and told her I needed to get my inhaler. She said no and that I have to finish the mile without it and to "push myself". So instead of dying "pushing myself", I left and discovered the wonderful world of allstar
I think it's great to push them a little harder, it'll help. But you have to know their limits and how much to push them.
Mentally and physically often go hand in hand in sports IMO. It's your mentality 9/10 that allows you to go the extra mile physically.Whoops I thought we meant mentally.
I give you kudos for admitting it your mistakeYes, I will be completely honest and say I made this mistake last year.
I could have, but it probably wouldn't have done any good. Cheerleading at that school is a big thing so everyone is biased towards them. Plus, I'm pretty glad it happened, since I started allstar insteadCouldn't you have complained to the school?
