Something I am observing more often is people wanting to be something they are not. Start with the coach- The coach wants to be a therapist or a scientist. The ATC wants to be a physical therapist. The physical therapist wants to be an MD. The MD, well not sure on that one, in many cases they want to be entrepreneurs and some are coaching wannabe’s. The sport scientist wants to be a coach without being accountable for the results in competition unless they are spectacular and they can claim success. Parents, they definitely want to be coaches. Here is a simple solution. Everyone do your job and do it well. Know enough about what everyone else does so that you can communicate with the other professionals, parents and boosters, but do your job. Know what do you know and you don’t know and do the best with what you have.
