The TBLC coaching philosophy focuses on fun, participation, skill development, and team building. To achieve these ideals coaches, managers, and convenors will:
- Ensure that every player receives equal playing time
- Emphasize team play and team development
- Encourage parents to get involved in the team building process
TBLC coaches recognize that, as a coach of any group of children, they are a role model for each player. Therefore, each coach will:
- Strive to make the sport of lacrosse enjoyable
- Respect all players as individuals
- Be a teacher of skills and values
- Be fair and promote fair play by respecting the rules and officials
- Create a risk-free learning environment by being approachable, enthusiastic, and positive
Performance by our coaches will not be measured by a win/loss record, but by the interest, satisfaction, and pleasure reflected in the faces of the players and their parents.
