Just like Jason Sudeikis' character in Ted Lasso, you don't have to be an expert in the sport your coaching, you just need to have an open mind.
“We’re gonna try it on. See if it fits. It might not. Then again, it might be a very flattering silhouette. I might wear it right out of the store.”
Ted empowers many people on the show, including the kit man, Nathan Shelley . Nobody, other than his parents, might have known of Nathan’s cerebral talents if Ted hadn’t asked for his advice about a play. As a youth coach, don’t be afraid mix things up. Use a different lineup every game. Move kids around to as many positions as possible.– Dani Rojas
We first meet Rojas as he sprints onto the field with youthful effervescence after he is finally given his shot in Lasso’s lineup. It’s a line that should resonates with us. Not only can sports be a metaphor for life, but how you coach young athletes will directly affect who they become. This point isn’t lost on Lasso, who rarely yells and lives by positive reinforcement, especially after his players make mistakes.
We’ve all gotten caught up in winning as coaches. But don’t let that thrill get the best of you. There were a couple of tactics that especially bothered me when I coached my sons’ baseball teams. One was when opposing coaches intentionally stalled to let the “clock” run out on our game. One guy made especially long mound visits; another intentionally threw balls during coach pitch. C’mon, guys, we all know baseball is decided by outs and innings.
