Coaching courses and training seminars are increasingly available. One important role of coaches, especially youth coaches, is establishing safety for school-age athletes. This requires knowledge of CPR, prevention of dehydration, and following current concussion management guidelines. Most people do not hesitate to seek expert advice from a car mechanic, accountant, attorney or doctor, but when it comes to training, people often choose to do it on their own. Working with a coach helps you to: (a) Achieve a greater level of fitness than you would on your own. (b) Reduce your risk of overtraining injuries. (c) Become a more knowledgeable and insightful individual. (Jacket)
