Coaches Question From a Parent to Coaches

[SupportingHerDreams]

Hi Coaches!

I hope it is ok for me to post in here. I have a quick question and would love to hear thoughts from coaches.

I recently found out that my daughter's anxiety is being triggered by a coach because he reminds her of an old coach from a gym that we left (leaving that old gym was apparently more traumatic than I realized).

This new coach is not her "main" coach but does work with her occasionally.

Would you want to know something like this about one of your gymnasts?

I would absolutely want to know so I could be more aware and put extra effort into building trust and creating a good coach athlete relationship

Yes I would want to know

I would want to know and all of the great coaches I work with would also want to know.

Absolutely… I would hope that there would be a way to work past it.
