This document provides guidelines for an individual class project to create a personal coaching philosophy. Students are instructed to write a statement of their philosophy covering general ideology, character development, diversity, behavior, motivation, and leadership. They must also include a reference and reflection section where they discuss how their philosophy relates to leadership theories and why it would lead to success in modern athletics. The reflection section should be a minimum of 6-7 pages and reference leadership concepts discussed in class. Overall, the project should be 12-15 pages in length and will be graded based on content rather than page count.
