January 6, 2006 (Press Release) --
Soccer coaching jobs may be becoming more difficult to fill as competitiveness and sports rivalry are driving people out of these positions.
It is no secret the sports craze in the United States has been getting more and more out of control over the past few years. http://www.soccercoachingjobs3.com/articles/coaching-soccer-formations.html is a source of information on this topic. At the earliest ages possible parents are arming their children with balls and bats and sending them out to compete against other children. Not only are the children in competition, but the parents scream and become irate on the sidelines as the game progresses. This insanity has even led to extreme cases of violence and even death at children's sporting events. However, this is also leading to a shortage of coaches willing to enter the combat zone to battle overzealous parents and caregivers in order to teach children to play sports.
To counteract the bloodthirsty experiences in children's sports, Maine has instituted a federally funded program to promote sportsmanship, participation, and discourage excessive competition, called Sports Done Right. Other states have followed in attempting to balance the psychological aspects of athleticism among children by implementing similar programs.
Not only is the extreme enthusiasm driving coaches out of the profession, but children are also abandoning playing sports because the fun is slowly being sucked out of it. Stringent practicing, competitive tournaments, and unrealistic expectations are making children burnout on what was once fun and exciting. Parents that believe they are motivating their children are actually causing more stress than anything.
To avoid pushing children too much, it is suggested to focus on the enjoyment of playing the game instead of the outcome. Excessive practicing and pressuring children to be exceptional should not be tolerated. These simple steps would alleviate much of the stress involved for children, coaches, and parents.
