Coaches and our Philosphy
As a coach, we have a big responsiblity of teaching, training, and being an example. We take pride in the develop of our athletes and the maturity process they go through. A positive atmosphere and positive coaching are a necessity in the development of the total person. All our athletes won't be stars on high profile teams but they all will be citizens. And we want them to be productive and active in life.
Bearing this in mind, we have our mission statement. Our coaches must be willing to follow it and do the right things for the kids. We are contantly looking for ways to improve our organization and coaching. Many coaches have been at different levels and experiences and bring alot as they come to our organization. But to have general training will make our mission statement, philosphy, committment, and improvement consistent across the board. To do this, we try to have coaches meetings, we have been trained in CPR, and we are in the process of being certified as coaches. We want our parents and participants to know that we care about them and their progress.
We have a process of the way things are done. We are learning and the process again must be consistent. We have an event form for those that want to play in a tournament or league. These must be filled out and turned into Sue at bettycrocodile@hotmail.com
Roster changes, new people, hoop2ter (mantanence players), enmails, etc should be keep current because of our use of the internet for communication.
All financial tranactions and dicussion should be done through Sue who is our controller. This eliminates the middle person (which is us {the coaches}) and is one less headache we have so we can concentrate on our other duties as coaches. It is important that all our parents are up to date on their financial matters. We have a good financial record with other organizations and want that record to stay in tack. We know we are bargain for the all the athletes get. So it's only fair we are current with the services we provide.
From time to time, I will find articles that will be helpful to us as a group. They will be sent per email. If you find articles or have ideas feel free to share them with us. northstarbasketball@hotmail.com
As a group, we as coaches must be consistent in our teachings. This consistency must be continued in our offensive/deffensive schemes, and our of bounds plays. This is done so if a different coach has to subsitute for another, they can step right in a be an impact to help players. If you are unfamiliar with players, the plays, etc. the whole game is spent searching to get things done and the coach will not be as confident in that situation.
We are always looking for more coaches as our organization has grown to 12 teams now. If you know of someone or you would like to volunteer. You can contact us at northstarbasketball@ hotmail.com
Even though, we appreciate all our coaches do. We still want to keep our training and teachings high quality. To do this, we must keep high standards and contantly keep improving ourselves through contact with high school, college, and pro coaches and programs.We also have contact with speed coaches, strengtrh coaches, trainers, and physical therapist. So you see our program has lots of help to survive and get athletes to their goals.
