Athletic Directors
We train and develop coaches and guide parents to healthy boundaries with their student athletes.
Coaches of Excellence is here to assist you as an Athletic Director in transitioning from societies imposed culture of ‘win at all cost’, ‘entitlement mentality’ and ‘parents banking on athletic scholarship to cover college costs’, to a culture of coaches capturing the hearts of their athletics and parents dealing appropriately with the rigors of having a student athlete and having realistic expectations.
Do these comments resonate with you about the challenges of being an Athletic Director?
“It is so many different things. It goes from grades to attendance, dealing with discipline issues, to coaching issues, to parental issues. Ask me any day and it’s something different … A lot of it is putting out fires.”
“People want the athletic administrator to solve all the problems – get rid of this coach, suspend that athlete. You solve the problems and 50 percent of the people are happy.” “And I think it’s stressful because of the emotions that surround all the (sporting) events.”
WE CAN HELP!
