Topic:  Being More Assertive & Confident As a Coach

Question from Steve:
I'm new to coaching basketball, and this season I'll be coaching 8-10 4th and 5th grade boys. I don't come across as a particularly confident assertive person. Got any tips on how I can have a successful season?

After 27 years of coaching I have learned this: It's not what you know, it's what they think you know.

Go into ever practice with a plan, stick to the plan. Just keep in mind where you are going, don't be concerned with the route you take. You don't have to know everything and there is nothing wrong with saying, "I'm not sure. Lets walk through it together and see what we come up with.
