    Study Notes

    Teaching and Coaching Principles

    • Developmentally appropriate experiences require teachers/coaches to assess students' understanding, retainment of coaching points, and likely reactions.
    • Effective teacher/coaches enhance athletic skills, foster competition enjoyment, and boost students' self-esteem.

    Interscholastic Athletics

    • The primary goal is to promote learning, not just competition.
    • Interscholastic athletics developed in the mid-1800s to meet educational, socializing, and military needs.
    • Participation does not guarantee positive outcomes; involvement must be purposeful.

    Coaching Characteristics

    • Students prefer a supportive, approachable, and motivated teacher/coach.
    • Coaches play a significant role in students' educational experiences, aiming to enhance physical and psychological growth.
    • A student-centered coaching philosophy prioritizes the educational mission and aligns personal values with athletics.

    Professionalism and Responsibilities

    • Professional behavior includes hard work, appropriate language, sportsmanship, and healthy lifestyles.
    • A teacher/coach is accountable for implementing emergency action plans and ensuring student eligibility.
    • Relationships with students, parents, and colleagues must be maintained appropriately.

    Coaching Philosophy

    • A student-centered philosophy embraces values, winning perspectives, self-awareness, and ethical responsibilities.
    • Communication of coaching philosophies should be intentional and well-planned.

    Goal-Setting and Feedback

    • Effective coaching involves setting SMART goals (Specific, Measurable, Achievable, Relevant, Time-bound) and providing augmented feedback to guide improvement.
    • Concentration can be enhanced through routines, identifying distractions, and developing focused strategies.

    Psychological Aspects of Coaching

    • Understanding the balance of arousal and performance is crucial; optimal arousal enhances performance to a limit before negatively impacting it.
    • Autonomy, as a psychological need, can be fostered by allowing students choices during training.

    Safety and Health in Sports

    • Safe practice environments are essential; proper equipment maintenance and safety training for coaches are critical responsibilities.
    • The effects of anabolic steroids can include numerous physical side effects, particularly for adolescents.

    Nutrition and Recovery

    • Students should consume high-carbohydrate meals 3-4 hours before activities and protein snacks within 30 minutes post-competition for optimal recovery.
    • Hydration is critical; losing even a small percentage of body weight can negatively impact performance.

    Miscellaneous

    • Meetings with students and parents to clarify expectations and guidelines should occur preseason.
    • Practitioners should recognize biological maturation differences and their effects on student-athletes' performance and adjustment periods during growth spurts.### Heat-Related Illness
    • Signs and symptoms include impaired cognition, dyscoordination, passing out, seizures, and muscle cramps.

    Dehydration Warning Signs

    • Indicators of dehydration encompass thirst, headache, fatigue, nausea, irritability, muscle cramps, weakness, and goosebumps.

    Performance-Enhancing Drugs

    • The three main classes are stimulants, anabolic steroids, and blood doping.

    Injury Treatment Plan

    • Basic treatment includes Rest, Ice, Compression, and Elevation (R.I.C.E.).

    Hydration Status Evaluation

    • Students can gauge hydration by examining urine; a color resembling apple juice indicates dehydration.

    Growth and Nutrition in Teens

    • Female students typically reach adult height by their sophomore year; encouragement for appropriate carbohydrate, iron, and calcium intake is essential.

    Rest Following Injury

    • Rest the injured area according to medical recommendations; avoid using the injured part to promote recovery.

    Body of the Workout

    • The workout phase involves minimal rest leading to fatigue, which increases stress on technique execution while stimulating energy replenishment mechanisms.

    Fluid Intake During Practice

    • For every pound lost, students should consume 16 to 20 ounces of fluid to rehydrate adequately.

    Skill Acquisition Stages

    • During the initial skill acquisition stage, focus is on developing proper motor programs for the technique being performed.

    Learning Tactics in Intermediate Stage

    • Practice sessions should be structured to facilitate technical and tactical development and enhance learning.

    Common Learning Styles

    • Three prevalent learning styles are auditory, visual, and kinesthetic.

    Open and Closed Skills

    • Examples of open skills include rebounding, shortstop executing a double play, and single-leg takedown in wrestling.
    • Closed skills include tennis serve, swimming start, and shot put.
