[quote=Anonymous]It’s not either / or. It’s a nuanced blend. Good coaches can harness talent be it athleticism or be it sports IQ. They can grow it and get more out of it. They can also teach average kids to play the game better. Passing. Communicating. Moving off the ball. Etc. To simply give up and think otherwise is silly. For a kid to be truly elite do they need talent, drive, hard work, and natural sports IQ? Yes. Does it also help to have a good coach? Yes. But who cares as very few of our kids will ever be that anyhow. Find a coach that likes to teach the game, knows the game, hold kids accountable, and blend praise and criticism properly and stick with him/her. [/quote]
