Coming into this analysis of chapter six was talking about starting to get the project off the ground and the parts Mr. West and the Microkids played in the project. When Mr. West was working on the project he started to learn more and something that stood out to me was that not everything worth doing is worth doing well, there is no such thing as a perfect design.

Greg Bach, the author of the article “The Parents Association for Youth Sports,” is the communications director for the National Alliance for Youth Sports (NAYS) in West Palm Beach, Florida. This organization’s goal is to increase awareness of the negative impacts parents’ actions have on children competing in sports and aims to make youth sports more enjoyable. According to Greg Bach’s article, parents whose competitiveness is out of control can cause emotional trauma to their child (Bach 16). The emotional trauma evoked is a result of the parents yelling at the pitcher, coaches, and umpires child (Bach 16). Often when the child is put in this situation they feel uncomfortable, scared, embarrassed, and pressured to meet the expectations of his or her parents (Bach 17).

We are a Sports Connect Organization–the qualities of a great sports coach help athletes learn, experience, enjoy their job, adapt, have sportsmanship, and work together. A coach’s experience is essential on a multitude of levels. They will be a role model for your athlete for many years. Their teaching style needs to nurture and foster their experience; to formulate their potential that can be unlocked and evolved later in life. Learning new skills is essential, but the takeaway needs to optimize and integrate the athlete’s behavior, motivation, life, etc.
