RAGE PCA Resource Center

Tools and Resources for Coaches, Parents and Athletes

Our goal within RAGE is to foster a Positive Coaching culture. In addition to workshops and general communication for coaches and parents, we have established (with help from PCA) this Resource Center, which provides various tools, resources and ideas to assist you in helping to make our Positive Coaching culture a reality.
Whether you’re a coach, parent or player, please take advantage of these resources to promote and protect the concepts of Positive Coaching within our club, within your team, and for yourself.

Thanks,
RAGE PCA Director

A Parent’s role in his/her child’s youth sports experience is to let the players and coaches focus on winning while he/she provides unconditional support for the child independent of performance. The list of tools below provide insight into how parents can contribute to an “Honor the Game” culture.
PARENT TOOLS

  • Parent Letter: PCA Introduction
  • Parent Pledge
  • The Role of the Culture Keeper
  • Game Day Tips for Parents
  • Guidelines for a Coach/Parent Partnership
  • When Parents Need to Intervene
  • Empowering Conversations
  • Athletes

PCA believes that the goal for any athlete should be to become a Triple-Impact Competitor.  The motto of a Triple-Impact Competitor is “better”:  making yourself, your teammates and the game better.
Triple-Impact Competitors make positive contributions on three levels:
* Personal Mastery: Making oneself better
* Leadership: Making one’s teammates better
* Honoring the Game: Making the sport better

PCA believes sports has two goals.
#1:  Striving to win
#2:  Learning about yourself and life.

Check out the tools below to learn more.

  • Making Yourself Better
  •  Making Your Teammates Better
  • Making the Game Better
  •  TIC Pledge
  • 2 Minute Drills

During a PCA Leadership Roundtable Call, Bruce Horowitz — co-founder of 2007 National Youth Sports Award Winner Beverly Hills Basketball League (BHBL) — explained how message bombardment fuels the league’s full implementation of its Positive Coaching initiative.

Bruce spoke of “2 minute drill” e-mails that he regularly sends to parents and coaches, highlighting nuggets of PCA wisdom. His aim: Sharing enough PCA principles with enough people that Honoring the Game becomes the cultural norm.

We’ve borrowed the “2 minute drill” from BHBL and will produce a new “drill” each month for both parents and coaches. We will send each “drill” to partners in PDF, text and web link.

We hope you forward each “2 minute drill” to all coaches and parents in your organization as a step toward ensuring the success of your Positive Coaching initiative.
