Are you a coach feeling the pressure of "walking on eggshells" in today's sports environment? Do you fear parent complaints, athlete accusations, or even investigations?

In this episode of The Coaching Culture Podcast, JP Nerbun and Betsy Butterick dive deep into the challenges coaches face in navigating a culture of fear and overprotection. They explore the rise of CYA (cover your a**) coaching and discuss the impact on both coaches and athletes.

JP and Betsy offer practical strategies for coaches to:

• Proactively address potential issues
• Set clear expectations with athletes and parents
• Develop strong communication skills within their teams
• Protect their own well-being while fostering a positive and transformative athletic experience.

Tune in to discover how to lead with integrity, build a supportive team culture, and rediscover the joy of coaching!
