As a sports mom for 21 years, I watched my kids play on more than&nbsp;100 teams, and if I am being honest I will have to say that a lot of them had no clue about how to do <em>team<\/em> the right way.<\/p>\n<p><strong>What makes a good team? <\/strong><\/p>\n<p>As a coach, here are the team characteristics you should be striving to nurture, and as a parent, here\u2019s the kind of team you should be seeking. It won\u2019t happen every season, but when it does, it\u2019s almost magical.<\/p>\n<h4><strong>1. Good teams don\u2019t take no for an answer when it comes to believing in kids.<\/strong><\/h4>\n<p>I\u2019ve seen how belief empowers a kid. When my son was a senior QB, he played a game that he would rather forget. It was rainy and muddy, and as a result, the offense&nbsp;was disastrously sluggish. My son feared he might lose his job. On Monday, Coach called him into his office, and it wasn\u2019t to fire him. Instead, he told my son that he believed in him and gave three reasons why he wanted my son to succeed. Knowing that his coach believed in him gave my son the strength to come back the next week with an outstanding offensive performance. Good teams look for the positive. Talk about the positive, and <strong>affirm the good in kids<\/strong>.<\/p>\n<blockquote>\n<p><em>Good teams don\u2019t hold past mistakes against kids. Good teams look for ways to help all kids succeed.<\/em><\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<h4><strong>2. Good teams know how to celebrate the small victories or the one person&#8217;s success.&nbsp;<\/strong><\/h4>\n<p>Sometimes parents and coaches <a href=\"https:\/\/www.coachup.com\/nation2021\/articles\/to-become-a-champion-small-wins-make-a-big-difference\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"follow noopener\" data-mce-href=\"https:\/\/www.coachup.com\/nation2021\/articles\/to-become-a-champion-small-wins-make-a-big-difference\">overlook small victories<\/a> because they are too busy looking for the big stuff\u2013the touchdown passes, winning goals, home runs, or game-high points scored. While it\u2019s okay to rejoice in those successes, coaches and parents should never overlook the small victories or the one person\u2019s accomplishments.<\/p>\n<p>Small victories are different for every player and every team. Small victories are subtle; many parents and coaches miss them because they are too busy focusing on the negative while waiting for the really BIG victories to come along. A small victory may be the team\u2019s ability to work as a team instead of playing selfishly. It may be running the offense correctly or cutting down on turnovers. And a small victory may be only <em>one<\/em> person\u2019s achievement. Maybe one player was finally victorious on learning a certain skill that another teammate had already mastered. Good teams don\u2019t forget to celebrate the one or the small because good teams care about each individual as an individual, not just as part of a team.<\/p>\n<h4><strong>3. Good teams don&#8217;t take themselves too seriously.<\/strong><\/h4>\n<p>Let me say this bluntly: parents and coaches need to lighten up. Laughter during practice&#8211;at appropriate times&#8211;is a good thing. <strong>Hard work and fun can co-exist<\/strong>. Teams who take themselves too seriously and can\u2019t tolerate some lightheartedness or can never get to the point of laughing at their mistakes, are missing a lot of the fun that can come from being part of a team. It could even be argued that a team who laughs together, wins together.<\/p>\n<h4><strong>4. Good teams see potential in kids when no one else does.<\/strong><\/h4>\n<p>What is potential anyway? The dictionary definition describes it as&nbsp;<em>a latent excellence or ability that may or may not be developed.<\/em> Every child has some skill or ability. The challenge is for the coach to find that skill and help the child develop it. A good team will be honest about kids\u2019 skills, recognize that each player his his unique gifts, and then help each player develop that ability. Perhaps you are thinking that is a lot to ask of a coach, but that\u2019s why <a href=\"https:\/\/www.coachup.com\/nation2021\/articles\/why-youth-coaches-are-so-important\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"follow noopener\" data-mce-href=\"https:\/\/www.coachup.com\/nation2021\/articles\/why-youth-coaches-are-so-important\">coaching kids is such a huge job<\/a>.
