As a Sports Parent: What is your definition of a "coachable" child?
A sports parent who reads what coaches want is often willing to set the stage to prepare their child to do whatever is necessary to be successful in sports.
You already know what a love of the game and a positive attitude look like. As a sports parent, If you don't get "coachability" completely and you can't look it up in the dictionary, what are you to do?
You might consider going to your child's youth sports coach. Unfortunately, 90% of youth sports coaches are untrained and unqualified to know. There is even a possibility a coach might steer a sports parent away from developing a child's "coachability" because it is not as important to them as a child practicing the fundamental skills necessary for winning.

Many coaches, and parents for that matter, do not know that "coachability" and winning go hand-in-hand or know how "coachability" is nurtured.
