The Coaches’ Motivational Playbook is designed to help coaches answer the age-old question: “How can I get the most out of my players?” This volume is the “how-to” book coaches have been looking for, filled with proven step-by-step methods on motivation from coaches and players at every competitive level. Initially, the book addresses the authors’ observation that coaches should be able to motivate anyone—even those who seem to be indifferent. This book provides coaches with a strategy that works. In an easy-to-understand and -apply manner, this book explains how coaches can motivate their players using the proven M.O.T.I.V.A.T.E. method, which is a systematic plan of action appropriate for every player. The book also includes a number of team motivational exercises and ideas that coaches from across the country have employed, as well as a list of team mottos that teams can adopt. As such, the book offers actual speeches that can be adapted to a particular program, as well as pep rally talks and quotes. A section on how coaches can motivate the indifferent athlete is also presented.
