Services for Coaches
The services for coaches I currently offer include individual counseling, peak performance training seminars, testing and assessment, crisis intervention, media spokesperson, and professional consultation. To learn more about these services, see the descriptions provided below.
- Peak Performance for Coaches Seminar. This 90 minute on-site seminar teaches coaches about the critical contemporary issues in interscholastic sports, as well as how to continually develop a personal coaching philosophy. Coaches will learn how to help their student athletes play their best (and safely), while also learning how to apply athletic transferable skills to life. Coaches will also learn how to stage a pre-season meeting with parents, conduct themselves appropriately by using responsible boundaries when working with children, and develop communication and conflict resolution skills needed to work better with parents. The end result of this training seminar is a coaching staff better prepared to identify potential problems before they occur, while better managing their own stress levels so that they may enjoy coaching (currently we are experiencing coaching shortages nationwide).
- Community Parent Athletic Seminars. A sample of topics is provided below. Each seminar is delivered on-site in the community and approximately 1 hour in length.
- Understanding the realities of playing college and professional sports
- Signs of youth sports burnout and overtraining (and what to do)
- Clinical issues student athletes experience (eating disorders, performance anxiety, depression, etc.)
- The dangers of performance enhancing supplements
- Improving communication between you and the coach
- Developing a portfolio for your child to send to college coaches
- Sport specialization versus sport sampling (pros and cons)
- Helping student athletes identify and use athletic transferable skills
- Athletic Performance Enhancement (goal setting, focus, and concentration skills)
- Leadership Seminars for Student Athlete Captains. This 2-hour seminar teaches student athletes the importance of their visibility to the school and community, as well as how they can use this status to effectively lead others.
- Peak Performance Seminar for Student Athletes. This hour long seminar teaches student athletes the basics of mental preparation as it applies to focus, goal setting, relaxing under pressure, confidence development, handling anger and adversity, and a number of other performance-related skills. This seminar also includes Excellence in Athletics Performance Cards.
- Athletic Department Crisis Intervention. I am available to assist school districts with issues related to athletics that may include, but are not limited to coach-student athlete boundary issues, coach rehabilitation services, and any other issue that might affect the health and safety of student athletes, coaches, and parents involved in interscholastic sports.
- Drug & Alcohol Assessment for Student Athletes who Violate School Code. Assistance provided to student athletes and their families, includes clinical assessment and report.
- Sport Performance Assessment (SPA) testing. Teams and/or entire athletic student athlete groups can be tested using this 50 question assessment tool designed by Dr. Stankovich that reveals student athletes strengths and weaknesses in focus, confidence, mental preparation, and other important aspects related to athletic performance.
- Other Professional Consulting. I offer professional assistance in a number of additional ways, including training in the areas of wellness and productivity, athletic culture and philosophy, and leadership.
