When you are coaching highschool there are going to be situation that come up. This is just part of coaching especially when you are coaching teenage boys at a critical point in their development as a young man. As a coach i think you should try to treat every player the same, but apporach every situation differently. Workiing in Detroit you have to deal with a lot more problems before you get to the field. Its home issues, the company you keep around you and the overall struggle of dealing with the circumstance in detroit. Some days i would have to take kids home cause they didnt have a ride or buy food after practice to cause guys were hungry. I had to realize coaches are much more now they are coaches, mentors, father figures and inspiration to players. These are just some of the things that i experienced Coaching this summer.
