The two problems that typically occur when the coach's objectives are incompatible with the competitiveness of the program are these: 1 - The first occurs when the coach has competitive objectives in recreational sport program. Athletes usually select recreational sport teams because of the emphasis on having fun and being part of a team. When a coach is too competitive, the athletes don't like the pressure to win and may quit. 2 - The second occurs when the coach has recreational objectives in a competitive sport program. Athletes in competitive sport programs want the competition and are not satisfied with just having fun. When a strong emphasis is not placed on competing, the athletes are more likely to quit.

Describe the two problems that occur when the coach's objectives are incompatible with the competitiveness of the program.

False

Discipline is always negative because it is equated with punishment.

The three energy systems may appear to be independent but are actually working together. All three systems contribute to needed energy, but each system's contribution of energy changes according to activity needs. For example, during a sprint, all three energy systems are contributing, but the phosphagen system is the primary supplier. During a 30-second max test, again all three energy systems are contributing, but the anaerobic system is the primary supplier. And during a marathon, all three systems are contributing, but the aerobic system is the primary supplier.

Explain and provide an example of the relationship between the three energy systems.

During the preseason parent meeting, the coach should 1 -discuss the coach's objectives for the team 2 - allow parents to become acquainted with the coaching staff 3 - explain the coaching philosophy 4 - explain the nature of the sport and its potential risks 5 - explain the team rules, policies, and procedures (explain parent expectations, establish communication procedures, allow parents to express their concerns, and provide support roles for parents to contribute).

Explain at least four of the five components that should be included in the preseason parent meeting.

These are the eight benefits of physical training. (Answers should include any five.)1 - the ability to perform at a higher level 2 - lower level of fatigue over time 3 - faster recovery after strenuous exercise 4 - less muscle soreness following exercise 5 - the ability to practice both technical and tactical skills longer and better 6 - lower susceptibility to injury 7 - faster recovery from injury 8 - prevention of mental fatigue and improved concentration 9 - greater self-confidence as a result of physical preparation 10 - greater enjoyment as a result of performing better, winning more, and feeling less fatigued

Explain five of the recognized benefits of training

Team meetings should only be held if they are well organized and conducted effectively. The five purposeful reasons for having team meetings are the following: 1 - to provide information that will help the athletes perform better 2 - to teach character education 3 - to develop consequences for team rule violations 4 - for problem solving related to team issues 5 - to identify and show appreciation to athletes who abide by the rules

Explain five purposeful reasons to hold team meetings.

Team culture contains the following six components: 1 - team traditions that unite a group, not only together but with past teams (such as teams with a tradition of sportsmanship over winning) 2 - basic operating procedures that provide a road map for athletes to follow concerning the everyday workings of the team (tryout procedures, practice procedures, and travel procedures) 3 - appropriate management of information (access to personal athlete information between coaching staff) 4 - the nature of the sport (team sport versus individual sport, as well as the level of sport) 5 - the power, influence, and status structure within the team 6 - the leadership style of the coach (captain selection, power afforded to team leaders, command versus submissive versus cooperative style of the coach).

Explain four components that should be included as part of team culture.

It was initially believed that athletes learned sport skills by developing mental blueprints for each repetition of a task. This explanation worked well for simple tasks but was insufficient in explaining more complex tasks where there's more information involved. More recent thinking proposes a process of rule abstraction, gathering key pieces of information to be used for future executions of the skill or similar skills. These key pieces of information create rules that guide future behavior.

Explain how a mental blueprint applies to the process of learning sport skills and compare it to the newer thinking of abstracting rules.

Athletes who want to lose body weight must expend more calories than they consume, while athletes who want to gain body weight must consume more calories than they expend. An athlete who wants to maintain body weight must eat enough calories to equal the calories expended.

Explain how calorie consumption should change in order for an athlete to lose, maintain, or gain body weight.

Coaches can continue being students of their game. They should not only know the rules and possess the tactical and technical skills of their sport, but they should constantly strive to learn more. They can get certified as a coach; join coaching associations; find and read books and videos about their sport; attend clinics, workshops, and seminars regarding both the sport and coaching; and communicate with and watch other coaches.

Explain how coaches can become knowledgeable about their sport.

Each stage of learning requires different instructional strategies. During the first, or mental, stage, coaches should be careful not to overinstruct because the athletes may get overloaded with information. A coach should go slowly and patiently in this stage. The practice stage requires a quality of practice that allows the athletes to develop the abstract rules for the movement. It is also at this stage when the skill should be practiced in gamelike situations. In the automatic stage, the athletes should begin taking responsibility for their technical skill development. The coach can then begin addressing other factors affecting performance, such as tactics, strategy, and mental skills.

Explain how coaching instruction should change during the athlete's progress through the stages of learning.

The "more is better" attitude is not an efficient way to train and condition athletes because it can lead to overtraining. Overtraining is caused by excessive training and inadequate recovery that leads to long-term physical and mental fatigue. The role of the coach is to find a happy medium between under-and overtraining.

Explain how the attitude of "more is better" is not an efficient way for coaches to train and condition athletes.

While it might seem easy to ignore an athlete who is purposefully misbehaving, the misbehavior can escalate until the athlete gets the coach's attention. Redirect the behavior by giving the athlete something to refocus on: ask a question or have the athlete demonstrate a skill.

Explain how to handle the athlete who misbehaves for attention.

Shaping play is redesigning the game to focus on what is relevant in a game. Play can be shaped in the following seven ways. 1 - Change the rules about what athletes can and cannot do and focus on areas of play that need improvement. 2 - Alter the numbers of players to be sure athletes understand how to perform with varying numbers of teammates and opponents. 3 - Change the environment the athletes have to play in (for instance, use a smaller field) or change the size of the goal (for example, use a larger goal to ensure scoring success or a smaller goal to make athletes work harder). 4 - Change play by modifying how to score or what the goal is (such as passing the ball five times before taking a shot). 5 - Modify the playing equipment. 6 - Control the actions of the more dominant athletes. 7 - Manipulate the time of play.

Explain shaping play and describe four aspects of the game that can be changed to create a variety of learning situations.

Some helpful team routines would include prepractice locker room routines, prepractice practice, starting practice, transitioning from one activity to another, after-practice locker room routines, precontest routines, postcontest routines, and travel routines.

Explain some common routines that may be helpful for a team.

The Hawthorne effect was identified in a series of studies conducted in the 1920s and 1930s at an electric company that examined factors that influence worker productivity. The results of the studies showed that it didn't matter what changes were made in the workplace as long as the workers felt the company was paying attention to their needs. With respect to team culture, athletes are more absorbed into the culture of the team when they feel the coach cares about and takes an interest in them. When coaches show interest in the athletes' achievement, show pride in the team's accomplishments, help the team play together, and provide clear feedback, then the athletes will in turn show pride in their achievements, experience satisfaction and enjoyment being a member of the team, believe they are part of the decision-making process, and develop a sense of confidence.

Explain the Hawthorne effect in terms of team culture.

The USDA's MyPlate shows the amount of each nutrient that should be consumed for a balanced meal. Half the plate should consist of fruits and vegetables, with more emphasis on the vegetables, and the other half should consist of grains and proteins, with more emphasis on the grains. A small side plate should include dairy products.

Explain the USDA's MyPlate as a guideline to help combat the obesity epidemic in the U.S.

A well-developed philosophy of life and coaching can help you learn about yourself and what you value in life as well as in sport. It can help you think through important issues before they become problems and provide principles to guide you when problems do develop.

Explain the benefits of a well-developed philosophy of life and of coaching in terms of a coaching career.

Even though season planning can be time-consuming and hard work for a coach, it is important that coaches understand the benefits of planning. These benefits include knowing in advance what technical skills, physical training levels, tactical skills, mental skills, and communication skills will need to be covered. The plan also helps the coach stay on track during the season, and it provides a framework for evaluating the season in terms of past seasons in preparation for future seasons.

Explain the benefits of planning the season.

There is no one arousal or activation level that applies to all athletes in all sports. The challenge for coaches is to understand the level of arousal that facilitates performance for a specific sport and for a specific athlete. Some sports require higher arousal levels (weightlifting, blocking in football); some require lower arousal levels (golf, bowling); and some require moderate levels (baseball, basketball). In addition to the level of arousal needed for a specific sport, coaches also need to understand the individual athlete's optimal arousal levels. Each athlete has his or her own optimal level of arousal for peak performance. The inverted U explains that too much or too little arousal hinders performance. Coaches should understand how the specific sport and the individual athlete can be influenced by arousal or activation levels.

Explain the coach's role regarding the inverted U relationship between arousal and performance.

A gateway drug is a drug that leads people to use illicit drugs. The drugs commonly listed as gateway drugs are alcohol, tobacco, and marijuana. When young people use these gateway drugs, they are not only more likely to use more potent drugs, but they are also more likely to engage in inappropriate and illegal behavior.

Explain the concept of a gateway drug.

Active recovery is part of a proper cool-down following exercise. Engaging in light exercise following intense exercise will keep the blood moving, which helps clear lactic acid from the body.

Explain the concept of active recovery.

Game sense is the ability of an athlete to read a situation in a game or contest, have knowledge of the game (such as the rules, strategies, his or her own strengths and weaknesses, and the opponents' strengths and weaknesses), and make a decision about what should be done in the situation.

Explain the concept of game sense.

Since there are numerous possible situations an athlete could face during play, it isn't feasible to teach each situation and the potential options individually. Tactical principles are general rules that athletes can use to make tactical decisions during play. Here are some examples of these principles in sports.1 - Offensive players always move into open space (a basketball player moves to a space not occupied by a defensive player).2 - Defensive players always deny the open space (a defensive soccer player knows where the open space is and anticipates the offensive player moving there). 3 - Reduce the angle of attack (a defensive football player does not make a direct run at the offensive runner but uses an angle to intercept the player).4 - Know how to give teammates an advantage (a hitter in baseball hits behind the base runner to allow that base runner to advance to the next base). 5 - When on offense, spread the defense apart (a basketball team on offense sets up their plays 10 to 15 feet outside the key to make the defense spread out). 6 - Understand how and when to change directions (in tennis know how and when to change the direction of the next groundstroke).7 - Increase reaction time by reading the play (in lacrosse, anticipate where the next pass will go).

Explain the concept of tactical principles and provide at least four examples

Historically, the teaching of character was thought to be a primary function of the family, the school, and religious institutions, but moral education has declined over the past 40 to 50 years. Today many young people are not being exposed to moral development. Many families are unable or unwilling to provide moral guidance. Schools shied away from moral education in the 1970s and '80s because parents did not agree with the moral education provided by the schools. Finally, fewer young people today are exposed to religion, an important source of moral guidance

Explain the decline of character education in this society.

Early-maturing athletes are commonly the best athletes and the star players due to their early physical maturation giving them more speed, power, and strength than other athletes. But as the other athletes begin physically maturing, the early-maturing athlete loses that advantage. This loss can be perceived as a loss of or decline in skill level. The coach needs to help guide these athletes through the psychological adjustment of not being "the best" anymore, and encourage them to sustain their effort and find a new role on the team for them.

Explain the difficulty experienced by early-maturing athletes when other athletes begin catching up and the role of the coach during this time.

Late-maturing athletes are often at disadvantages in speed, power, and strength when compared to athletes that have already undergone physical maturation. Coaches should help these athletes understand their time to grow will come. They should be matched with similar-sized athletes in practices and focus on performance rather than outcome (winning or losing).

Explain the difficulty experienced by late-maturing athletes when other athletes are bigger, faster, and stronger, and the role of the coach during this time.

These are the five components that should be included in the drug education agenda. 1 - a discussion about the facts of drug use in sport 2 - an introduction or review of the drug policy (including the team's rules and any other institutional policies) 3 - a review of the drug testing procedure if drug testing is conducted 4 - a discussion about nutritional supplements and the facts concerning their use 5 - an invitation to a reputable person (past athlete, well-known athlete) to deliver a positive message about playing clean

Explain the five components that should be included in the drug education agenda.

These are the five factors associates with increased risk of eating disorders. 1 - dieting at an early age or trying to make specific weight categories 2 - individual perception of perfectionism, high self-expectations, and persistence in achieving or maintaining those perceptions 3 - a traumatic experience with weight 4 - a stressful event, such as an injury or loss of a coach 5 - pressure from coaches or parents to attain a specific weight

Explain the five factors known to increase the risk of eating disorders among athletes.

The five steps to conflict resolution are 1 - Agree on what the conflict is about and see the conflict as a mutual problem that needs to be solved. 2 - Communicate cooperative intentions because conflicts can't be solved when communication breaks down. 3 - Use empathy skills to understand the other's perspective about the problem. 4 - Motivate the other person(s) to resolve the conflict. 5 - Reach a satisfying agreement through discussion, understanding, and negotiation.

Explain the five steps to conflict resolution.

These are the four general steps to help coaches address the stress associated with coaching. 1 - Identify sources of stress. 2 - Change the perceptions about the sources of stress. 3 - Find moral strength by following a coaching philosophy. 4 - If stress can't be dealt with in steps 1 through 3, then seek professional help.

Explain the four general steps to help coaches address the stress associated with coaching.

During early adolescence, the strongest and tallest boys have the greatest status among their peers. Sport provides an opportunity to show off their athletic ability and thereby increase their acceptance and status among their peers.

Explain the importance of sport for boys during early adolescence.

The most common problem coaches face when trying to teach athletes healthy eating is trying to change their eating habits. Eating habits are hard to change, and since we live in a junk-food society, it makes it even more difficult for athletes to change.

Explain the most common obstacle a coach faces when trying to teach athletes healthy eating.

Negatively expressed rules turn people off or put them in a negative frame of mind. Rules should be expressed in positive terms that define what should be done rather than what shouldn't be done. Rules need to be seen as demonstrations of mutual respect and responsibility toward others.

Explain the problem with rules expressed in a negative manner (for instance, "No mishandling of equipment").

Coaches are expected to exhibit reasonable behavior, possessing the skill and knowledge common to any other coach in the profession. Coaches have legal duties to perform. Not performing these duties, either by failure to act or inappropriate behavior, is negligence, and the coach can be held liable for any resulting injury. There are four questions that determine whether negligence has occurred.1 - Did the coach have a legal duty to the injured athlete? 2 - Did the coach fail to meet a legal duty? 4 - Did an injury actually occur (the potential for injury is not sufficient)? 5 - Did the coach's failure to fulfill the duty cause the injury? All four questions must be answered affirmatively for a finding of negligence.

Explain the relationship between negligence and coaching.

The role of winning in ASEP's philosophy "Athletes first, winning second" is that while the emphasis should not be winning, athletes, teams, and coaches should always strive to win. Striving to win should be the immediate short-term objective of any contest, but long-term decisions should be based on what is best for the athletes.

Explain the role of winning in the American Sport Education Program's philosophy "Athletes first, winning second."

Coaches, just like athletes, try to find reasons for successes and failures. These reasons, or attributions, can affect athlete motivation when conveyed to the athlete by the coach. The concept of the self-fulfilling prophecy states that individuals will perform to the level expected by others. In sports, the coach's expectations become prophecies of what the athletes are capable of achieving. When a coach sets high expectations, athletes are motivated to achieve that high level, but when a coach sets low expectations, athletes are only motivated to reach that low level. The prophecy helps explain the responses of success- and failure-oriented athletes. With success-oriented athletes, the coach's low expectations are rejected, and they work even harder to prove the low expectation is not worthy of them, while the coach's high expectations strengthen their beliefs in their own abilities. With failure-oriented athletes, the coach's low expectations confirm their lack of ability assessment, while the coach's high expectations are viewed as not being genuine or possible.

Explain the self-fulfilling prophecy in terms of the coach's expectations with success- and failure-oriented athletes.

There are six steps to becoming a coach of positive influence. 1 - Know yourself through self-awareness. 2 - Like yourself or become the type of person you want to be. 3 - Have the self-confidence to engage in self-disclosure in order to foster meaningful relationships. 4 - Act with integrity. 5 - Develop trust with others. 6 - When the previous five steps are accomplished, then the individual can be a positive influence.

Explain the steps to becoming a coach of positive influence.

The benefits of taking an athlete out of play to provide corrective feedback are the following:1 - The athlete is more receptive to the feedback because he or she is not being corrected in front of his or her teammates.2 - The other teammates are busy playing and not paying attention to the coach-athlete interaction. 3 - These types of interactions are kept simple and concise.

Explain the three benefits associated with pulling an individual athlete out of play in order to provide corrective feedback.

The three cognitive skills needed to read a sport situation are (1) perception, (2) attention, and (3) concentration. When in a problem situation, the athlete uses all his or her senses to gather any information necessary for understanding the situation. Perception refers to the athlete's ability to recognize and interpret sensory information gathered from the situation. Since sport situations change quickly, athletes must be quick at gathering this pertinent information; this means they must know where to focus their attention to acquire the important information. Lastly, the athlete must concentrate on the important information and avoid distractions.

Explain the three cognitive skills needed to read the sport situation.

The three important duties regarding the evaluation of an athlete's injury or incapacity are to 1 - ensure all athletes meet health participation standards at the beginning of the season 2 - determine whether an illness or injury might hinder participation 3- be sure an injured or ill athlete is ready to return to play

Explain the three important duties regarding the evaluation of an athlete's injury or incapacity.

The three major objectives in sport are 1 - to win; 2 - to ensure athletes have fun; and 3 - to help athletes develop physically by playing a sport, psychologically by teaching athletes to control their emotions and develop feelings of self-worth, and socially by teaching athletes cooperation in a competitive environment and the appropriate standards of behavior, both in and out of the sport environment.

Explain the three major objectives of sport.

The three sources of unrealistic goals that athletes often accept for themselves can be goals set by the athlete, the coach, and the athletes' parents. Athletes may set unrealistic goals for themselves because of their desire to be equal or superior to the athletes who excel. Coaches often set goals for the entire team that are not achievable by all athletes on the team. And parents may push the child to pursue goals beyond their capability in hopes of living vicariously through the child's achievements.

Explain the three sources of unrealistic goals that athletes often accept for themselves

When evaluating athlete skills during the preseason, coaches can 1 - assess skills through formal testing procedures, such as written, practical, or oral tests 2 - observe the athletes perform in a scrimmage setting 3 - combine formal testing and scrimmage observations

Explain the three ways coaches typically evaluate athlete skills during a preseason evaluation.

Skill can refer to either a specific task, such as shooting a 3-point shot in basketball or passing a soccer ball. Skill can also refer to the level at which a task is performed, such as beginner, intermediate, and advanced skill levels.

Explain the two different meanings associated with the term "skill" in sport performance

The two-for-two rule for resistance training helps athletes determine when to increase the amount of resistance. When the athlete can do at least two more reps in the last set for two consecutive workouts, then the resistance should be increased. The guidelines for increasing the amount of resistance for smaller or weaker athletes suggest 2.5 percent increases for upper body exercises and 5 percent increases for lower body exercises, while for larger or stronger athletes the guidelines suggest 5 percent increases for upper body exercises and 10 percent increases for the lower body.

Explain the two-for-two rule for resistance training and the guidelines for calculating the amount to increase the resistance.

Selecting objectives is extremely important for two main reasons. First, objectives provide direction for the coach to teach and guide the athletes through the athletic experience. Second, the objectives can aid the coach in determining whether what is intended to be taught and achieved by athletes is actually being accomplished.

Explain why a coach's selection of objectives is one of the most important decisions he or she will make.

The three reasons athletes typically misbehave are the following: 1 - They are discouraged. 2 - They feel insecure. 3 - They don't get recognition for their positive behaviors.

Explain why athletes usually misbehave.

objectives and beliefs

Parts of a philosophy A philosophy should consist of

Successful coaches find ways to integrate all three types of objectives to ensure they all are being met. A successful coach understands that the objective for any specific competition or contest is to strive to win. However, striving to win falls under the more general objective of teaching the athletes to follow the rules and be respectful toward others. In addition, a successful coach needs to understand that most athletes participate in sport to have fun, to develop physical, psychological, and social skills, and to experience winning. If these are the reasons athletes participate in sport, then coaches should ensure these objectives are being met. And finally, a successful coach should understand their own reasons for wanting to coach. This should include understanding the level of athletes to coach (youth, high school, college), the sport, and the gender of the athletes.

Explain why coaches need to understand the differences between the objectives for a specific competition or contest, the objectives for athlete participation in general, and the coaches' personal objectives.

Both must be trained because the muscles and energy system work together. The muscles need energy in order to contract, and energy systems depend on muscles to produce movement.

Explain why it is important for athletes to train both the muscles and the energy system

Athletes need to experience a reasonable amount of success when they are learning a technical skill because they need to feel as though they are making progress in learning the new skill. Athletes can become frustrated and interpret that frustration as failure.

Explain why it's important for coaches to ensure athletes experience some success when learning a technical skill.

Previously learned skills already have a motor program. By relating a new skill to a skill already learned, the athletes can use some of the old skill's abstract rules and apply them to the new skill.

Explain why it's important to relate a new technical skill to a previously learned skill.

During middle adolescence, teens often exhibit poor judgment and impulsiveness because of their need for independence from adults. Coaches, teachers, and parents must protect middle adolescents by setting and enforcing clear limits.

Explain why middle adolescents must be protected from dangerous risks.

The coaching profession needs a code of ethics to serve as a guideline for acceptable and unacceptable coach behavior. Coaches can get caught up in the heat of competition and cross the line with their behavior. A code of ethics can help coaches remember there are three objectives for athlete participation (to have fun; to develop physically, psychologically, and socially; and to win), rather than just one (to win).

Explain why the coaching profession needs a code of ethics.

Athletes learn to gauge their self-worth by whether they win or lose. Winning enhances one's sense of self-worth while losing decreases it. Winning is important, but it should not be the primary goal of sport. The primary goal should be striving to achieve the athlete's personal goals. Coaches need to help athletes interpret their losing experiences

Explain why the winning = success mentality can be harmful to athletes.

Coaches can get frustrated when athletes join competitive sports but have recreational objectives. These athletes are there primarily for fun and may make playing decisions based on the desire for fun rather than the larger goals of excellence and winning.

How might a coach react when athletes seek recreational objectives in a competitive program?

It is commonly thought that during early adolescence young athletes experience awkwardness in agility, balance, and coordination when going through a growth spurt. However, scientific evidence does not support this view. During early adolescence, young people do gain muscular strength, and body size does increase, but the growth is slow enough that most youths adapt quickly to these changes.

Identify the common myth concerning growth spurt awkwardness and explain its relevance to coaching.

As the leader of the team, a coach must do the following. 1 - Chart the course for the team (provide a vision). 2 - Give direction to others, such as athletes, parents, and administrators, for following that course. 3 - Provide an environment and team culture in which the athletes can pursue and achieve the vision.

Identify the three responsibilities of the coach as the team leader.
