Coaches Need Role Models

The philosophy of each basketball team is created, implemented, determined, and shaped by its head coach. It’s the coach who is vital to the success of the team. The specific educational background and personality of the coach will ultimately be reflected in the team’s achievement. Therefore, what our coaching community needs to do is create role models for aspiring coaches to emulate so that they, too, can become the best team leaders possible.

The coaching business is like every other business in that success comes with hard work. But even if you are the hardest worker on earth, you may sometimes struggle at your profession because you don’t have adequate guidance, structure, and/or support. Coaches have to rely on teamwork in order to get better in their chosen profession. They will make improvements once there is a constant exchange of opinion, experience, and know-how from their fellow coaches.

I am lucky to have been raised in a country with a long-standing basketball tradition, and, even more importantly, in a country that prizes the education of its basketball coaches. Over the years, we have developed a very strong coaches’ association and have set in place strict guidelines for our coach training programs, from the lowest school levels right up to the highest competitions. Whenever I am asked what is needed to help the development of basketball coaches in other countries, my answer is always the same: Create a strong and well-organized coaches’ association that adapts to the needs and characteristics of that specific country.

Of course, the national basketball federation of each country must play an important role in the creation and functioning of these associations. In addition to governing the association, each federation should also provide the necessary financial and organizational support, as well as all the educational materials that coaches will need.

This is why I think FIBA Assist Magazine will be of tremeondus help in the develpment of young coaches.

We appreciate that much more still needs to be done to help in the continuing education of our coaches. At the recent meeting of the WABC in Geneva, we prioritized our goals as follows: the creation of a worldwide coaches database so coaches can interact and communicate with each other; the introduction of a specific FIBA licence for all coaches; the creation of a coaches association in each country; a national program to license coaches within each country; an annual coaches clinic; and the creation of a national education program for all coaches within the country. Furthermore, the goal of the WABC is to organize a “Young Coach Course” clinic to teach experts how to instruct young coaches. The translation of the FIBA book “Basketball for Young Players” into French, Spanish, Arabic, Russian, and Chinese will also do a lot to help our coaches. Meeting these goals will certainly help in the creation of many coaching role models for years to come. We must meet these challenges!
