Why we do anything matters. So what matters to you?
If you have ever stood on the sidelines, determined to give every child equal playing time, while scrambling to find your most confident player on the sideline, because you’re losing, you’ll know what I mean.
If you catch some of the parents watching you, and decide to start visible coaching – shouting instructions, getting busy, when 5 minutes ago, silence worked just fine, you’ll know what I mean.
If you have ever found yourself playing up to the kids, to keep them entertained, dropping drills like confetti, you’ll know what I mean.
“What am I doing here?” is worth asking.
Because if you are confused, sure as shit the kids are too.
