Description

Every year, people volunteer to coach young athletes. Many of these adults have never coached before and have never received any formal training in coaching. In The Coach's Guide to Real Winning, John Shannon draws from his thirty years of coaching experience to deliver this poignant, inspirational guide for coaches. At the core of the book is Shannon's reminder to coaches that their teams are made up of children, whose main purpose is to enjoy themselves in sport. According to the author, the most valuable lessons a coach an impart are those about hard work and integrity - not how many wins are chalked up.
