Content: By stretching and contracting muscles through depth and drop jumping, athletes can increase their hamstring strength by 44 percent according to the American Council on Exercise. Every coach will run their player through drills specific to their sport and their position within that sport. The drills are aimed at improving skill as well as overall speed, agility and quickness. These techniques should only be taught by a qualified coach and to those in excellent physical condition. The Motivational Speech
Every team encounters its rough moments and performance dips. As coach, it is your duty to provide the necessary lift in morale that can spur your athletes to victory and greater field performance. Boost morale by delivering a speech before a game or during half-time that speaks to what your athletes are feeling. As coach you have the particular benefit of being the one that your athletes seek approval from; take this opportunity to show the genuine approval and praise that you may have been withholding during practice. Refrain from negative reinforcement and overcome past issues and failures by bringing the attention of your athletes back to the game at hand.
