Book Beyond Winning

Download or read book Beyond Winning written by Kim Payne and published by Rowman & Littlefield. This book was released on 2013-08-20 with total page 243 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: These days it seems everyone has a youth sports horror story—whether it’s about a tyrant coach obsessed with his team record that only plays the best kids on the team, or a parent who publicly berates his kid for not making a goal. But should it really only be all about winning? What about having fun, learning a sport, and developing athletic skills? Beyond Winning with Whole Child Sports offers an alternative approach to teaching sports to kids. It deemphasizes short-term goals like winning and youth championships and discourages the introduction of adult-oriented, league-structured competition. Instead it emphasizes training techniques and coaching strategies aimed at improving core strength, balance, and creativity in aspiring athletes, using an age-appropriate four-stage timeline, based on a child’s physical, psychological, and neurological development. Beyond Winning with Whole Child Sports provides frustrated parents with help in the form of advice and concrete solutions to common questions, and step-by-step instructions for helping young children develop athletic ability in an environment that’s less structured while encouraging athletic and personal growth. It also reveals how to avoid bullying, trash talk, and elitism.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Culture has become a hot topic in athletics. From high school to professional programs, people are recognizing that culture plays a significant role in a team's success, but there has been little agreement about what a good culture looks like or how leaders can create it. Fortunately, this road has been travelled before in industries such as aerospace, oil and gas exploration, and nuclear power generation, where high levels of human performance can be the difference between success and disaster, or even life and death. For more than four decades, the authors have helped hundreds of organizations around the world develop leaders and improve their cultures. And with more than 25 years of experience in high school coaching and a combined 11 state championships, the authors' unique combination of experience and expertise allows them to adapt the solutions used in performance-critical industries to athletic programs at any level. High Performance Culture in Sports is the playbook for coaches and athletic administrators who want to achieve program excellence by developing the six dimensions of a high performing culture.

His story is one of hope and inspiration as is the story of his many athletes. "Coach Bob Sepulveda is just a good, hard-working coach and a good responsible person who cared about the kids in his charge.

Book The Rise of American High School Sports and the Search for Control

Download or read book The Rise of American High School Sports and the Search for Control written by Robert Pruter and published by Syracuse University Press. This book was released on 2013-08-29 with total page 442 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Nearly half of all American high school students participate in sports teams. With a total of 7.6 million participants as of 2008, this makes the high school sports program in America the largest organized sports program in the world. Pruter’s work traces the history of high school sports from the student-led athletic clubs of the 1800s through to the establishment of educator control of high school sports under a national federation by the 1930s. Pruter’s research serves not only to highlight this rich history but also to provide new perspectives on how high school sports became the arena by which Americans fought for some of the most contentious issues in society, such as race, immigration and Americanization, gender roles, religious conflict, the role of the military in democracy, and the commercial exploitation of our youth.
