Positive Coaching Alliance Presents "Developing Triple-Impact Competitors"
Kelly Kratz from the Positive Coaching Alliance visited Church Farm School on Thursday, Sept. 3 to present "Developing Triple-Impact Competitors" to CFS faculty, staff, administrators and coaches. While the PCA presentation is tailored toward coaching, Kratz noted that the information on "creating an atmosphere that supports a child's best possible performance" is useful for everyone.
Kratz defined "triple-impact competitors" as those who:
- Make themselves bettter
- Make the team better
- Make the game better
Attendees participated in various interactive activities, including thinking of a student who fell into one or two of the above categories, coming up with adjectives about them, posting them on sheets throughout Alumni Hall and then challenging them to develop a coaching philosophy based on that adjective in the days to come.
Kratz noted that "double-goal coaches" should be focused on imparting life lessons and encouraging learning, and that the number one reason boys and girls cite for quitting athletics is that it lacks fun. The presentation was one in a series that CFS will receive through its partnership with PCA.
