Coaching Intersects 'Adding Value' and Getting 'Buy-In'

The willingness to be coached is an underrated skill. Coach Joe Mazzulla explains.  

Many years ago I coached a player who pushed back against everything. She didn't go to MHS. She ultimately became an All-League player in multiple sports and played a sport in college.

Her mother wrote me a note, informing me that her daughter finally "got it," realizing that coaching wasn't criticism but help to be her best self. The sooner players understand that, the better they become.
