Rapport
A coach must be able to develop a good rapport with any number of individuals and groups: The student body, the professional staff (faculty, administration, maintenance), the Community as a whole, spectators, officials, fellow coaches in the district, media representatives, and parents. Good rapport and an image of competency and care are invaluable for the coach.
Organization
The school expects the its Coach staff to put a maximum effort towards organizing and managing a multifaceted program that includes ownership of everything from
transportation to gear tracking, hiring assistant coaches to designing community events.
Leadership
Diligence, enthusiasm, honesty and a love for the game are all part of a professional pride that should be exhibited by any coach. Personal appearance, dress, and physical condition should be exemplary. Dressing appropriately for practice, following practice schedules and building positive attitudes are very important.
Discipline
Every facet of discipline is the coach's responsibility. Individually, the coach becomes the model of all that the program represents - observation of school codes, training rules, rules of the game, ideals of good sportsmanship, behavior of participants throughout the season (at home and away) and the conduct of the crowd - especially where the student body is concerned. Desire to do well; to win well, and to lose well, should be emphasized. Staff, players and spectators should be motivated toward established goals.
