Coaches Assisting Other Skaters
|
The coaches at our rink, look out only for their skaters. I think they should also, assist other skaters from our rink, especially at competitions. Am I on the right track? DNB |
Linda says:
Coaches of private students charge for the time they spend with a skater and
consequently assist those skaters. Coaches who assist other students at
competitions are probably getting paid to do so. Each coach has a different
style and may prefer to designate who should fill in at a competition. A
different coaching style could be unsettling to a competitor especially when
they are already nervous. Although coaches may not look out for other
students, they should be courteous and friendly. A few kind words and a
hello can go a long way.
Marcia's Mom says:
You would have to be a little more clear as to what you mean about
"ASSIST" other skaters. In my experience, my daughter's pro would put her
on at a competition. If she was not going to be able to make the
competition, SHE would find someone to cover. Skate happy!
