Youth Coaching

I'm not in the mood to write my gay marriage essay because I cannot even find proper arguments to back up this topic. Can I find here someone to write my essay for me?

What exactly is youth coaching, you may ask? In my own opinion, I define youth coaching as an opportunity to interact with young adults by the operation as a personal supporter, advisor, and trainer, with the goal to help youths to bring out their hidden potentials in sports and in life. According to Cenera (2005), they referred to coaching as the following: There are a lot of different definitions for coaching, almost as many as there are approaches. At Cenera, we define coaching as the art of facilitating the unleashing of people's potential to reach meaningful, measurable goals. Coaching is oriented toward concrete impact and results; it is about helping the recipient, individual or team and the sponsor to articulate and achieve objectives. The focus is on both the current situation and future plans of the coaches.

The motivation to become a youth coach has been a long-hoped for dream every since I was a young child. It began at the early age of 11. I began participating in all sports, ranging from soccer, basketball and football. My extra time was spent reading books on how to coach, learning everything from the basics of coaching to the depth of counseling. While in the process of this I learned that coaching was not a regular job, it was more than an opportunity - it was a lifelong journey that would change the very lifestyles and moral fiber of young adults.

Over the past 8 years I have gained extensive knowledge and experience in youth coaching. For two years, I was an American Youth Soccer Organization (AYSO) coach for my son Kevin's team. AYSO (2006) refers to this program as a nationwide non-profit organization that develops and delivers quality youth soccer activities in a fun, family environment. If you would like to learn more on this particular Organization, I encourage you to visit http://soccer.org . It is a very popular website that gives you an insight on the activities that are current and oncoming. Subsequent to that, I was a Catholic Youth Organization (CYO) coach for three years. According to the CYO Handbook (2006), it states that as a CYO coach it is my responsibility to "teach and guide our youth in a manner, which will increase their respect for authority, their sense of fair play and their ability to adapt to the win and losses of every day life." Two of those years, I coached basketball for my daughter Jessica and one additional year for my two sons, Michael and Kevin.

As you can see, coaching youth sports has been an enjoyable and welcomed lifestyle and career. Coaching youths has brought me closer to my family; it has allowed me to share my knowledge with the growing minds of young adults. It has given me the opportunity to mix work and family.

My plan for the nearby future is to coach youth football this season. This is another great opportunity that I can list as a well welcomed agenda. Ultimately, I hope that my passion and commitment of coaching youths shows through my extensive hard work, hard love and dedication.
