Talking to your child about their sporting performance comes with the territory, a sporting manner. But not the words you choose enhance your child's athletic experience? Or they want to deter and discourage? It is a mistake that make most of us parents sport. At one point or another we'll say something, we should not have said. After that, we feel bad, our child feels bad, does not improve their performance and it is a negative situation all the way around. Avoid theseKind of situation in the future by using these tips in mind when talking to your athletes.
Tip # 1 ~ DO, Do not
When helping your child to tell them what they should do. Tell them what they should do. For example:
WRONG: Take your eyes the ball
Better: Watch the ball all the way.
WRONG: I better not see on foot during training.
Better: Always on the hustle practices and games.
Tip # 2 - Criticize theplay, not the player
Use the focus of your child. Critics of the game or the performance compared to the players themselves. Try with a positive end.
WRONG: You have a bad pass.
Better: The pass too far left, but with this small adjustment, it is directly next time.
FALSE: You do not even make close to that place.
Better: Your shot down, but with better footwork next time will help you straighten it out.
Tip # 3 --She did not even take enough
If the coach goes on a new concept, idea, try to go about it back home. Youth sports teams usually do not practice every day. In the high school level, the team practices every day, but coach is a topic or skill training while only a cover and move on. Just because your child coach dropped something in practice not believe that is enough for your child. Ask them if they understood the new concept. See if youhelping them to grasp it by one of them back home. But remember the "Rule of 3". If the trainer something a few times and go over them at home, but she does not even get to explain it, maybe it's time for another approach. If the new approach was to explain to your child 3 times and it's not yet sunk to, it's time to change strategies and to think of another way to communicate the message. If you say: "I've told you a hundred times ...."one step back. Maybe it's not your child that the slow learners. How often have you try something before you realize it does not work? Clearly say the same thing for the 101 Time we will not worry about a difference. Try something new.
Tip # 4 - Remember, what you say is
Yes, what you say to your child really count. Perhaps more than the words spoken by the trainer. But what you hear your child is not always get what you have said, or at least what youThink you have said. If you have a constructive criticism of the performance of your child, they repeat it back to you. You may be surprised to take her to your words. You will not know whether she was truly understand your senses as you ask.
If there is a discrepancy between what you said and what they heard, try to clarify your message. This is a bit tricky, because by trying to correct things, you can inadvertently them the idea that you do not think they are smart enough toCatch on to what you said the first time. Let them know that they are not at fault and that you get one, that needs to be better you communicate your thoughts in a clear and comprehensible manner.
Tip 5 - Be consistent and always positive!
Talk to watch with your child, your child, listen to your child Teach your child, you will hear again and again to teach, but keep it positive. We often require that we love. Since you're a parent your child you love so muchDemand probably pretty much from them. That's okay. But remember, be positive, not only logical but constantly. As a positive stand in line once a month, but would not be constant. With the hustle and bustle of the sporting life, time can fly by pretty quickly. It is to be easy to pass one or two weeks, without saying anything positive for your child. Make it a point to encourage and praise them more often than that. Shoot for 3-4 times per week, if not daily. If your child know that you believein them she can wear that believe in their power to itself. The trust and faith has the potential to power more than any drill could positively on.
Well, Mama, Papa, choose your words carefully. Use words that convey to the trust, instead of doubting himself. Words that help your child better next time instead of them fearing a further error. Let your words encourage and strengthen your child to perform, simultaneously contributing to their love of the game.
