SPONSORS:

HCSA is a partner with Positive Coaching Alliance and is working hard to create a culture that "HONORS THE GAME" and gets to the ROOTS of positive play. 

Rules -We refuse to bend the rules to win. 
Opponents -A worthy opponent is a gift that brings out our best. 
Officials -Show respect even when we disagree. 
Teammates -Never do anything to embarass our team. 
Self -We live up to our own standards even when others don't.

The THREE Themes of POSITIVE COACHING:
1. Redefining "Winning"  
A Positive Coach helps players redefine what it means to be a "winner" by emphasizing the ELM Tree of Mastery - where ELM stands for Effort, Learning and bouncing back from Mistakes.
2. Filling Emotional Tanks
A Positive Coach fills players' "Emotional Tanks" with encouragement and praise, recognizing that players need full tanks to play their best.  A Positive Coach strives to achieve the 5:1 "Magic Ratio" - 5 praises for every 1 criticism.
3. Honoring the Game
This gets to the ROOTS of positive play.
