Attempt to teach:
How to deal with good and bad emotions Building relationships and respecting others Setting and achieving goals It is not all about you!
You make great points here. It should be all about instilling a love of the game, learning and understanding each of your players, and having them understand that they are part of a team.
U10 is a great age. So much to teach. So much enthusiasm. And so much ahead of them. Best of luck with your team!
