Thought I would ask and see if anyone has coached kids before because I'm coaching an under 12 team and it will be for the first time.
Training doesn't start for a couple of weeks from now.
I've got a lot training skills and drills as well as some games to play. I'll also get some pool sessions going and looking towards getting some training gear for the boys. I'll prolly leave that to the management side of things.

Even though the planning for this is underway it's how I'm gonna handle these boys. Some have attitudes, some are shy and some are very confident. Got any tips on how to see out this season?

I've coached them not to tell their parents on me, does that count?

I coached 7 year olds for a while, what I found is they'll behave if the sessions are interesting, everything runs smoothly so that there is no waiting around, and right from the go make sure the naughty ones know you mean bussiness so that they respect you and u'll be fine
