7. How to deal with disruptive players. • A team's dynamic can be thrown off kilter in many ways. Perhaps there was an incident between players or their parents on or off the court that has damaged their relationship. Perhaps a coach and a player had a falling out over playing time or coaching style that is affecting the rest of the team. It could be that a player made a huge mistake that got them removed from the team altogether and left a hole that everyone is feeling deeply. • Whatever the issue, the worst course to take is to let the matter go and hope that the problem will resolve itself. It won't. In fact, it is more likely to fester with time and corrupt everything you are trying to do with your team.

15. Motivating Student Athletes • http://www.nfhs.org/CoachingTodayFeature.aspx?id=4786

16. Thirteen guidelines for motivation. • Most important – BE ENTHUSIASTIC! It’s catching! • Love your kids! It’s hard to motivate someone you dislike and all of us will have some athletes on our squads who we have a hard time liking, but do your best. • Use the sandwich approach to correction. • Talkto every kid every day with something positive. • Make all statements to the media, etc. as positive as possible. • Take the blame if the team or an athlete messes up. As a coach, you must accept the blame for anything negative. Don’t blame kids or you’ll lose them quickly. • If anger is called for, make it at the act, never at the athlete personally – get it over with and then forget it.

17. Use any positive background material on the student that you can find. Personal information sheets filled out prior to the season are a big help. • Don’t ask kids to do anything you wouldn’t do yourself if you were in their shoes. Think before you speak!! • Avoid tangible rewards if possible; praise is the best. • Don’t punish kids with the activity you are coaching. It’s hard to have athletes enjoy your sport if you punish them with an activity that is part of your coaching. Example, most coaches use running as a punishment, simply because it works, but is it any wonder kids don’t like to run to get into condition? Make the punishment fit the crime! • Listen to your student-athletes! • Love your sport and always remember point No. 2! • You influence many youngsters as a coach; take that responsibility seriously. If you want those athletes to give you maximum effort, you must give them maximum effort in return. Motivation begins at home.

24. The Fundamental Aim of Sports Officiating The officials overriding goal is to promote the normal progress of a contestwith as little interference as possible. The competent official should be concerned with preventing rule infractions before they occur. This can be done in two ways: (1) by establishing a subtle but unquestioned influence over the game and (2) by actively preventing specific infractions.

25. When the officials "influence" is felt from the start, the game progresses as it was meant to progress. This influence can be established by (1) being in a position to call the play at all times and (2) by reacting immediately to rule infractions, especially early in the game.

26. Essential Ingredients for Effective Officiating 1. Officials must know the rules and be able to interpret them. 2. Officials must enforce the rules intelligently. 3. Officials must show integrity. 4. Officials must build sound human relations. 5. Officials must be primarily concerned with the safety of the individual athlete.
