Prepare your stations
Setting up props ahead of time Making sure mats are available Communicate with other coaches about station needs.
Get CONNECTED from the start… • Establish a connection with the child which helps to establish trust, and relationship • Open the line of communication with parents first with a friendly smile. This helps set the tone for when you might need to chat with them later about other things. • Teach your students about who you are outside of being their coach, (not TOO personal). Kids love knowing tid-bits that help make you real.
