    Episode 4: Parent to Coach Relationships

    Episode 4 covers the last Important relationship that of the Parent and Coach. Coach Puma covers what the role of the Coach and Parent to make this relationship work: For the Coach: Teach Parents About the Sport Help parents develop an understanding and appreciation of the sport including rules, skills, and strategies. Answer questions and refer parents to resources that will help them learn more about the sport. Develop a Code of Conduct for Parents Develop rules for parent conduct at competitions and events and share the rules with parents at the start of the season. Some example rules are to not interfere with the coach, to express encouragement and support, do not shout criticism, and do not make abusive comments to others. Establish Two-Way Communication with Parents Cultivate two-way communication by being open to what parents have to say and try not to be defensive. Let parents know the appropriate times and places for discussions. If a parent is aggressively communicating, try using a mediator such as an athletic director or league official. Educate Parents on Positive Parenting Behaviors Let parents know the negative consequences of their actions and show them the positive influence they can have on their child’s development. Also, share your process as a coach and encourage parents to reinforce the same skills you work with your athletes (i.e., independence, being prepared for practice). Hold a Parent Meeting at the Start of the Year At this meeting share the details and logistics of the season, the coach roles and responsibilities, appropriate parenting roles and behaviors, and highlight the importance of a healthy parent-coach relationship. Try to encourage open discussions at this meeting by directing questions at parents and allowing parents to ask questions. You may want to hold quarterly meetings as well based on the length of your season. For the Parent: - Any concerns parents have regarding their child’s participation should be handled away from the field and away from the child or any of the child’s teammates. - Any scheduling issues should be communicated at least a week in advance if possible. Any concerns about the coach’s personal coaching philosophy, expectations of players, or team rules should be addressed as early in the season as possible. By addressing these points of communication before the season begins, all coaches, parents and players will be able to communicate effectively with each other to better be able to create a positive environment for everyone.
