When asked of his most memorable moment en route to 700 wins, "Ironic, since what I remember specifically are some of the losses....watching individuals and teams reach the peak of their competitive skills.....and the annual Senior Tennis Banquets."
I was recently interviewed by one of our players for a class (Industrial Psychology). He asked me, "What makes a great coach?" I hadn't spent much time pondering this, but responded, "Experience. I have been both a poor and good coach, and everywhere in between on the scale. However, one cannot possibly be a GREAT coach without years of experience. One learns by doing in this industry.....every day, challenge, and player is different. That is what I love about my job."
Coach Rodgers has years of experience and IS a GREAT coach; I am honored to have him as a mentor, and friend.
Congratulations to Coach Rodgers on 700 wins!
I know that he is already focused on the path/journey towards the next milestone, rather than the milestone itself.
The Kohawks depart this Thursday and Friday for Spring Break in FL. 16 men, 11 ladies, 3 coaches and a plethora of supporting fans (30-40?). Will post pictures, videos and live scoring to the blog throughout.
