Coaches Mentorship Program

Tsunami is committed to growth and development. Not only are we passionate about the growth of our athletes and teams, but also the growth of our coaches. Tsunami’s Coaches Mentorship Program offers aspiring coaches hands-on experience, group meetings/lessons, and observation hours with Tsunami’s senior coaches. With a variety of opportunities available, the program aims to give participants exposure to all aspects of coaching.

 

This program is structured to empower coaches and provide them with the tools required to offer an exemplary water polo experience to Tsunami athletes. Practice planning, safety awareness, skill identification and correction, conflict management, and how to identify/manage different learning styles are among the many skills the Mentorship Program will equip coaches with.
