Coaching Staff Expectations

Staylow,

Coach Campbell's interview/player handbook has some excellent information on this subject. If you don't already have it, I would reccommend that you get it.

IMO.

Coach:
Here is what I put into my staff manual....



COACHES EXPECTATIONS

WHAT I EXPECT IN A COACH:

• To be the best teacher/coach that he can be.
• To be a positive role model.
• To sell, defend and be loyal to Lincoln High School and the Football Program.
• To be dedicated to the Athletic Department.
• To do everything possible to develop a winning attitude.
• To be seriously interested in the success of our players and members of our staff.
• To know the entire offensive and defensive schemes.
• To have a thorough knowledge of all fundamental techniques employed.
• To be thoroughly prepared for carrying out his responsibilities on the practice field.
• Not to be a ‘Yes Man’.
• To be a Thumb Pointer, NOT a Finger Pointer. Example: What can I DO to make the
program better, my position players better, myself better and our staff better.
• To attend all staff meetings when called.
• To study and work hard to make himself a great coach. Professional growth is a must
for any coach in order to maintain and develop new innovative ways of coaching, new
teaching techniques and stay abreast of any rule changes.
• To be willing to devote his time tirelessly to all phases of the program, practice, tape
review/breakdown, scouting, strength & conditioning supervison, recruiting, etc.
• Above all, an outstanding coach is 100% loyal to the other coaches on the staff. There
is no place on our staff for a disloyal member.


WHAT COACHES CAN EXPECT FROM ME:

• To run an organized program so that they will be able to function efficiently.
• To maintain an atmosphere that is conducive to teamwork.
• To sincerely listen to suggestions.
• To give responsibility and authority.
• To work and provide leadership to win.
• To treat them like men with dignity and respect.
• To sell them to our players, the community and other coaches.
• To let them coach on the field within their personality.
• An open door policy
• To be the spokesman for the entire staff.
• To let them know when they have been derelict in their duties.

This is pretty similar to what TM posted, but I'll list it anyway. It comes from Jim Unruh, head coach at Carthage, IL. His career record is 209-39 and he's won four state titles and played for four more in 20 years as a coach. I got it at a clinic just today:

EXPECTATIONS OF COACHING STAFF:

--Always be positive--"The key to developing players is to catch them doing something RIGHT" Anonymous

--Don't complain about your players; they're all you have!!

--Loyalty

--Communicative--"I don't want or need yes men!!"

--After practice, "pick up" a player you may have been hard on during the practice.

--Work with EVERY player you have

--Enthusiasm breeds enthusiasm!

--Strive to make your position group the stength of the team.

--Never "hash out" differences with HC or another assistant on the field.
