The Parent-Coach Relationships - A checklist may help! by TIM ROBINSON Due to the money and time committed, it is reasonable that most parents will demand in- put into the hockey en- vironment that their children will encounter. The individual most visibly connected with whether or not a child receives a truly positive and meaningful experi- ence is the coach. What most parents (and coaches for that mat- ter) do not realize is that the type of relationship that exists between the coach and parent has serious implications in terms of the type of ex- periences that athletes will derive from their involvement. The fol- lowing checklist has been developed for pa- rents who are interest- ed in improved Coach- Parent relations: Checklist Part A PARENTS: did you meet with the coach, individually, to discuss: 1. (a) medical/phy- sical considerations (i.e., allergies, de- velopment problems)? (b) social 'considera- tions (i.e., unusual at- titudes or behaviours, shyness)? (c) your perception of their motives for partici- pating in hockey (i.e., to learn to skate better, to be involved with their friends)? 2. Questions you may have concerning (a) objectives of the league and/or team (i.e., importance of win- ning vs. importance of individual improve- ment). (b) an opportunity for your child to receive equal ice time. (c) team regulations and rules. For example: e time regulations to be at the rink for games and practices, e dressing time dead- lines before games © behaviour regulations in dressing room, on bench ... etc. © conduct in practice. (d) method of in- struction to be employed in practice. 3. As a parent, are you. ready to acknow- ledge that the coach is the "leader"?: If so, be prepared to demonstrate your support for him/ her to your child at all times. The coach's respon- sibility to this relation- ship is vitally important as well. Therefore, pa- rents should expect league officials to en- sure that the following activities are being car- ried out by the coaches. Part B HAVE COACHES take the time to: 1. organize a formal meeting with you (the parents) to discuss: (a) the objectives/ goals of the league (i.e. ""winning" vs. "'par- ticipation')? (b) his/her coaching philosophy that will be used in games, prac- tices and when dealing with the players? 2. Outline to the pa- rents the type of player behaviour that will be reinforced (i.e., effort rather than performan- ce, controlled temper, team play)? 3. Define the parent behaviour they would expect (i.e., not to be yelling instructions or criticisms at the players or coach during the game, showing disres- pect for the officials)? N.B. It is recom- mended that parents who have instructions/ BIRCH SCENES for sale MAGIC PHOTOGRAPHY at WHITE SAND LAKE Spend sometime in the country and experience the ageless beauty of the North Shore of Lake Superior captured for you by, S. JOHNSON HEWSON 824-3155 We'll be happy to give you directions. EVERYONE WELCOME! ideas for the coach do so in an informal meeting away from the players. In this way, the coach is not in the position to be "*second-guessed" by his players, thereby re- taining the player's res- pect that is so valuable to successful leader- ship. 4. Acknowledge the technical expertise that a particular parent may have (i.e., parents who have had _ previous coaching experience may be able to assist coaches in practice). Misunderstanding be- tween parents and coaches is usually the result of inadequate communication be- tween the two groups. I am convinced that if both parents and coach- es take the necessary time to deal positively with the concerns out- lined in the above check- list, a clarification of roles and expectations will result. By being supportive, honest and open with your child's coach, your relationship will likely improve.

Terrace Bay Minor Hockey Report North Shore Action The Atoms played Schreiber and Manitou- wadge in Schreiber on Saturday, Jan. 21 and despite a strong ef- fort, came away losers in both games. Marathon was unable to make the trip because of the wea- ther. Their games will be rescheduled. Be- cause of a protest filed by the T.B.M.H.A. the North Shore Minor Hockey League has re- versed its earlier deci- sion to forfeit Terrace Bay's missed games in Manitouwadge in De- cember. These games will also be rescheduled. The league-leading Pee Wees played their third North Shore week- end in Schreiber on Jan. 28-29 and secured their hold on first place by soundly defeating their three N.S. rivals.
