Head coach

Mr. Phipps says he has the most difficult time with athletic clearance. He has made a few changes the past couple of years. Before, the athletic secretary would print a clearance sheet for every coach. Each coach was responsible for ensuring that every athlete was represented on this sheet. Each coach was responsible for “getting on the athlete” that was not cleared and reminding them to get his/her paperwork into the office or they will not be able to practice/participate. Mr. Phipps said…

being said, it is not easy for me to choose which coach was my favorite. However, there is one coach that sticks out in my mind, and it is not because of her amazing knowledge of the sports, but because of how she interacted with us. My high school volleyball coach, who also happened to be my gym teacher and our athletic director, started coaching my team when I was a Sophomore, my second year on varsity. There were many reasons I liked her as a coach. Some of the main reasons include her…

SEC. When I was growing up I imagined being a college coach. I choose this career because I had a lot of people help me when I was growing up, so now it’s my turn to help others, when they become young adults. Everyday as a child I always heard that you have to give back, so that’s what i am doing while I coach. Coaching have many responsibilities. When becoming a coach you just don’t deal with their players, they have to do. I will be the coach that will be able to master everything that it…

1098 Victories, A Couple of Irrelevant Losses, and a Life in Perspective: "The clearest insights I've ever heard about winning and losing come from my friend Pat Summitt, retired with 1,098 career victories, most of any college basketball coach of either gender.

We sent her the film from my first games and she had talked to coaches who had seen me play. She had met with my family and I and loved us. In college sports to be pursued by coaches when…
