Some people are not impressed with quiet calm coaches. Normally, people want a coach to be strict but nice. Coach Hardy, my basketball coach, impacted my life. Indeed, he is a quiet person that pushed the freshman basketball team to be ecstatic. In addition, Coach Hardy is not a normal coach because of his unique coaching style. He had high expectations, so he motivated me to do my best, and I was still optimistic.
In previous years, basketball was an extremely important role to me. Earlier coaches yelled at me and did not motivate me; they instead got me upset and disappointed.

Our Coach even made a drill designed for just sprints. Eventually, I began to realize that he was trying to make us better. At one practice, we ran thirteen down and backs over the long way over the court. Soon to follow, we ran sixteen down and backs. As the season progressed, I noticed that I would not be worn out as quick. Coach Hardy continued drilling the basics into our heads. We knew that you could not just skip the basics and go into the detailed areas. This is like a video game, because you need to know the basics. After mastering the the basics, a person can move on to the harder tasks. Because of me knowing the basics well, the next years of basketball will be focused on the details and learning new plays.
Overall, Coach Hardy made me get in shape, improved my character, and increased my confidence. How we did in games was determined on how we played as a team and not the referees or the coaches fault. Because of Coach Hardy, I think different about basketball in a delightful way. As a quiet but tough coach, we ran heaps of sprints. Given these facts, I really appreciate a coach that helps me grow to my potential and yet I still had fun. Most people do not appreciate getting yelled at especially in front of peers. Coach Hardy is a fantastic and impactful
