PRESENTATION OUTLINE
ABOUT THE JOB
Most coaches were in the the sport that they coach now. That way they know a lot about it.
They also have to know how to motivate the athletes to perform well.
Coaches need to know how to teach the sport, set up schedules, and they need to buy new equipment.
Coaches have to have safe equipment for the athletes so they can train safe and not get hurt.
I want to be a coach because I am a gymnast now and when I'm not doing gymnastics anymore I want to help other young gymnasts reach their goals.
Gymnastics coaches usually work a little bit during the day and mostly at night. On the weekends they usually work all day.
In the summer coaches mostly work during the day and during the school year they usually work at night and a little during the day.
OUTLOOK
- Openings are in Milwaukee&Chicago
- There are some openings in this feild
- I would like to coach in the gym where I trained
My outlook is good because if I wanted I could start my own team but I would like to coach where I train right now.
EDUCATIONAL PATH
I will need to go to college for 4 years and earn a Bachelor's degree. I am hoping to go to the University of Wisconsin-Oshkosh.
For the in state tuition it costs $6162
I want this career because I love the sport and I love helping other people reach their dreams.
Coaches can either try to get a job at another gym or they can open their own gym and hire other people.
How long a coach works a week depends on how long their athlete trains a week
Many coaches start out as an assistant coach.
