We\u2019re all familiar with the tough coach who insults the players and uses rough language to spur a team on to try harder. PCA actively works to do away with that stereotype, once and for all, believing that a kinder approach yields better results. As a chapter of this organization, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.positivecoach.org\/chapters\/arizona\/\">Positive Coaching Alliance Arizona<\/a> works hard to ensure that kids never come in contact with that nasty sort of coach, because PCAA believes in building kids, and not destroying them for the sake of a game.<\/p>\n<p>At Kars4Kids, we like their style. We\u2019re all for building kids with positivity. So we gave PCAA a <a href=\"http:\/\/www.kars4kidsgrants.org\/apply.php\">small grant<\/a>. We spoke to Tamara Clark, Arizona partnership manager for PCA, to learn more.<\/p>\n<h2><strong>Kars4Kids: Your <\/strong><a href=\"https:\/\/www.positivecoach.org\/mission-history\/\"><strong>mission statement<\/strong><\/a><strong> says that Positive Coaching Alliance develops \u201cbetter athletes, better people.\u201d What qualities make up a better athlete other than innate physical gifts? <\/strong><\/h2>\n<p>Tamara Clark: We use a lot of acronyms in our workshops to help athletes better understand their role. One acronym we use all the time is ROOTS. It stands for Respect for Opponents, Officials, Teammates, and Self. We also have developed a Triple Impact Competitor. In other words, we believe the qualities that an athlete should possess to be a Triple Impact Competitor is Bettering Themselves, Bettering their Teammates, and Bettering, or Honoring, the Game.<\/p>\n<p><iframe loading=\"lazy\" title=\"The Power of Positive\" width=\"840\" height=\"473\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/ziheWTPDKHs?feature=oembed\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share\" referrerpolicy=\"strict-origin-when-cross-origin\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe><\/p>\n<h2><strong>Kars4Kids: How does being a better athlete connect to being a better person?<\/strong><\/h2>\n<p>Tamara Clark: At Positive Coaching Alliance, this means that sports are tremendously impactful on kids throughout their lives. The qualities you learn while participating in sports you can take with you into the real world. If you can be an all-around better athlete on the field, it will easily transition to being a better person off the field. Studies show that kids who participate in sports at a young age tend to do better in school, stay in school, stay away from drugs and gangs, and tend to graduate a higher rate. This is because they learned discipline, respect for not only themselves but others, work ethic, determination, and how to be a part of a team or be held liable for something.<\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_474\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-474\" style=\"width: 840px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"wp-image-474 size-large\" src=\"http:\/\/www.kars4kidsgrants.org\/our-grantees\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/06\/i-wTp2BC9-XL-1024x683.jpg\" alt=\"The Jr. NBA Parent Forum and Clinic on March 14, 2018 at Gold Crown in Lakewood, Colorado\" width=\"840\" height=\"560\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.kars4kidsgrants.org\/our-grantees\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/06\/i-wTp2BC9-XL.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/www.kars4kidsgrants.org\/our-grantees\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/06\/i-wTp2BC9-XL-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.kars4kidsgrants.org\/our-grantees\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/06\/i-wTp2BC9-XL-768x512.jpg 768w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 709px) 85vw, (max-width: 909px) 67vw, (max-width: 1362px) 62vw, 840px\" \/><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-474\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">(Photo by Garrett W.

We have certified trainers who go through an extensive training to get certified in the workshops they are teaching. Most of our trainers come from sports, having coached, taught, or played collegiate sports or even on professional teams. We have workshops tailored to coaches, parents, leaders of organizations, and athletes. Each workshop is tailored to the group that is taught, the workshops are interactive, and we even offer resources before, during, and after the workshop is over.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-large wp-image-475\" src=\"http:\/\/www.kars4kidsgrants.org\/our-grantees\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/06\/IMG_3148-1024x683.jpg\" alt=\"Coach high fives student athlete on the field\" width=\"840\" height=\"560\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.kars4kidsgrants.org\/our-grantees\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/06\/IMG_3148-1024x683.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/www.kars4kidsgrants.org\/our-grantees\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/06\/IMG_3148-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.kars4kidsgrants.org\/our-grantees\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/06\/IMG_3148-768x512.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.kars4kidsgrants.org\/our-grantees\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/06\/IMG_3148-1200x800.jpg 1200w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 709px) 85vw, (max-width: 909px) 67vw, (max-width: 1362px) 62vw, 840px\" \/><\/p>\n<h2><strong>Kars4Kids: Is part of positive coaching teaching children how to be graceful losers?<\/strong><\/h2>\n<p>Tamara Clark: You can put it that way. We focus heavily on winning and teaching life lessons. Our goal is to get people away from the \u201cwin-at-all-costs\u201d mentality that has been developed for years. We absolutely believe winning is important and should be an ultimate goal, but we need to know how to teach those life lessons when losing is the outcome.<\/p>\n<p><iframe loading=\"lazy\" title=\"Sports Teach: PCA-Arizona\" width=\"840\" height=\"473\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/lCRtUqpfGIU?feature=oembed\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share\" referrerpolicy=\"strict-origin-when-cross-origin\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe><\/p>\n<h2><strong>Kars4Kids: What is a Double-Goal Coach and how does s\/he differ from a garden variety sports coach?<\/strong><\/h2>\n<p>Tamara Clark: A Double-Goal Coach has two goals; Winning and Teaching Life Lessons. A garden variety sports coach can be your typical win-at-all-costs coach or someone who will choose yelling and cussing to get a point across. We know that studies show that type of screaming coach is not successful anymore and that kids are more likely to win when you are positive and use our 5:1 ratio, which is for every negative you try and relay 5 positives to your team or an individual player.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-large wp-image-476\" src=\"http:\/\/www.kars4kidsgrants.org\/our-grantees\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/06\/C_08261-1024x681.jpg\" alt=\"Young PCA athletes on the field\" width=\"840\" height=\"559\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.kars4kidsgrants.org\/our-grantees\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/06\/C_08261-1024x681.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/www.kars4kidsgrants.org\/our-grantees\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/06\/C_08261-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.kars4kidsgrants.org\/our-grantees\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/06\/C_08261-768x511.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.kars4kidsgrants.org\/our-grantees\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/06\/C_08261-1200x798.jpg 1200w, https:\/\/www.kars4kidsgrants.org\/our-grantees\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/06\/C_08261.jpg 1936w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 709px) 85vw, (max-width: 909px) 67vw, (max-width: 1362px) 62vw, 840px\" \/><\/p>\n<h2><strong>Kars4Kids: What does a parent have to do to become a Second-Goal Parent?<\/strong><\/h2>\n<p>Tamara Clark: A Second-Goal Parent focuses on the second goal of being a Double-Goal Coach; Teaching Life Lessons. All too often kids drop out of sports because they aren\u2019t having fun and parents have a lot to do with that. They tend to think they know more than the coach or try and coach on the sideline. The worst is when parents act disrespectful to others including the coach, other parents, the other team, or even their own child.<\/p>\n<p>In our workshop we teach that it\u2019s important to be a parent after a game and not a coach; don\u2019t scold your kids when they do something wrong; and be an example at games from which your kids can be proud of and can learn a positive lesson.<\/p>\n<h2><strong>Kars4Kids: What does it mean to \u201cflush our mistakes.\u201d Does that mean bringing them to light and examining and learning from them?<\/strong><\/h2>\n<p>Tamara Clark: No, actually it means when a mistake happens you have to be okay with letting it go in the moment. We actually encourage coaches and athletes to have a mistake ritual when a mistake happens in the moment. A lot of teams create the mistake ritual together as a team building piece.<\/p>\n<p>I have seen kids do the flushing of a toilet motion on a field after losing and everyone kind of laughs to lighten the mood which helps kids realize mistakes are okay but you have to be able to bounce back.<\/p>\n<h2><strong>Kars4Kids: What does it mean to have a full \u201cemotional tank?\u201d Is that about getting enough praise?<\/strong><\/h2>\n<p>Tamara Clark: During our workshops we compare an emotional tank to a car fuel tank. When the gas tank in your car is full you can go further and do more. When it is empty you can\u2019t go far and you run out of gas. It\u2019s the same concept here.<\/p>\n<p>If someone is feeding you the 5:1 ratio, your tank is going to increase and stay full which will allow you to go further and do more. Being <a href=\"http:\/\/www.kars4kidsgrants.org\/our-grantees\/sidelined-athlete-leanne-joyce-creates-positive-impact-kids\/\">positive<\/a> and giving meaningful feedback are 2 key items that build an emotional tank. An emotional tank can be refilled even through simple gestures or physical movements, like, for instance, a high five.<\/p>\n<h2><strong>Kars4Kids: What\u2019s next for Positive Coaching Alliance? <\/strong><\/h2>\n<p>Tamara Clark: As a whole company we just celebrated 20 years so we are looking forward to the next 20 years. As for our Arizona Chapter we just hosted our first Positive Impact Awards where we honored 9 athletes from all over Arizona who embody a Triple Impact Competitor, with scholarships. We also awarded a Community Impact Award and a Double-Goal Coach Champions Award as well as raising awareness and money.<\/p>\n<p><iframe loading=\"lazy\" title=\"Student-Athletes and Dodgers Foundation honored at 2nd Annual Positive Impact Awards\" width=\"840\" height=\"473\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/mCA0PvqlAaI?feature=oembed\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share\" referrerpolicy=\"strict-origin-when-cross-origin\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe><\/p>\n<p>We plan on being the model chapter for all other future and current chapters.
