Inspirational Quotes:

The Value of Coaching Education and Coaching Development

Once a young player discover a passion for a sport, the single most important factor in their long-term development is coaching. The more a coach knows about teaching methodologies, about technical training, about the development of tactical insight, about the short-term and long-term periodization process, about the emotional needs of their players, and about the psychology of sport, the better the environment becomes. Above all else, top coaches have a vision that clearly connects training to performance to long-term evolution."

"Learning to coach at a high level takes as much effort as learning to play at a high level; neither comes without a significant investment of time and effort. Excellent teachers are made, not born.

          - Tom Turner – OYSAN Director of Coaching and Player Development
