The General Coaching Philosophy
Of
JEFFREY C. SCHAUM
My philosophy of athletics is one of hard work, dedication, and commitment to a cause. It is
important to instill in every young athlete the desire to excel and to play to the best of their
given ability. I believe that coaches should help young people set goals and point them in the
direction they should go in order to achieve those goals.The mind and body must be developed to the best of its ability. This requires discipline and
hard work.
I believe that the coaching staff and program should be very well organized so that there is
very little wasted time. I also feel that it is important that the coaches show a genuine
interest in each athlete. Each individual athlete should leave every workout with a positive
attitude.
Most importantly, I believe in coaching by teaching. To be an effective coach, one must be
an effective teacher. Coaching is not how much you know, but how much you can get your
athletes to do.

GENERAL FOOTBALL STAFF ASSIGNMENTS
All assistant coaches have the authority to carry out the duties assigned to them. The headcoach is ultimately responsible for everything that happens in the program. Each assistant coach
must keep the head coach aware of all situations that arise involving any aspect of the program.
It is my managerial style to never ask you to do more than I am willing to do. If you can keep
up with the pace I am going to set, we will be successful. If you are willing to do more, be
creative, never care who gets credit and always be positive, we will be Champions.
Coaching football is hard work. It is not always fun or glamorous. The actual coaching
duties are the easiest part of our job. It is the Peripheral Duties that require patience and hard
work off the field. Each job assigned has a reason that it was assigned, and must be performed effectively. There is nothing I that I will ask you or assign you to do, that I have not done myself.
There is a chain of command in every effectively managed organization. Each assistant answers
to the head coach, who in turn answers to the Principal, and Superintendent. We will follow that
chain of command and be loyal to the people we work for.
General assignments such as being in your office at designated times and making sure the
weight room is properly supervised are the responsibilities of all coaches. Coaches do have an
input in all disciplinary matters, should keep the head coach updated on all depth chart situations
or changes, and should keep their office areas organized and clean. All coaches are to help check
the academic progress of players and help any player who needs help or tutoring. All coaches
will help and complete paperwork in a timely manner. Be PROFESSIONAL in ALL your
assigned duties (know what those assigned duties are). Being professional also includes proper
attire for classroom, practice and games.

COACHING RELATIONSHIPS
A. STAFF
1. The head coach should help each assistant coach achieve his personal goals. This does
not mean he will always please the assistant coach.
2. The assistant coach is expected to blend all efforts to make the program and the squad
more successful.
3. Be prompt for all coaches (and team) meetings. This indicates a professional attitude and
consideration for others involved.
4. All coaches should know our total offense and defense. It is each coach's
responsibility to know the techniques being used by the other members of the staff.
Changes are to be made from joint decisions with the head coach.
5. Disputes between coaches should never occur in front of the squad. Disagreements
are to be voiced during coaches meetings - we must all be together to accomplish our
common goal -a Championship Team.
6. Be loyal and complementary of fellow coaches.
7. A strong, winning attitude is a must. There is a difference between a great competitor
as a player and a great competitor as a coach. For a coach, it shows up in these
areas.
a. Thorough preparation for all practices.
b. Preparation of charts or teaching aids for his position.
c. Constant probing of one's thinking to assure he is covering all phases of the game
for those players over whom he has direct teaching responsibility.
d. Willingness to devote his time tirelessly to all phases of the game.
e. Attitude on the field which indicates real enjoyment of coaching. Patience,
demanding persistence is the key.
B. PLAYERS
1. A coach may request a player be dismissed from the squad. A staff conference will be
held and a final decision reached.
2. Quitting - A player must talk to the head coach first (24 hour rule).
3. Praise is more important than criticism, but if a player needs to be pushed, don't hesitate
or wait for the head coach to do it. All coaches must share the small things in the realmof discipline.
4. Don't knock the squad, they are all we have!
5. The push, the drive and enthusiasm of a team comes from the coaches. A player reflects
the coaches' attitudes and goals.
6. Players must respect you! This can only be done if they have feeling for you.

Relationships (continued)
C. FACULTY
1. Develop good relationships with the faculty and administration. We need their support.
Try to "win over" anyone who might be against our program (maybe by asking advice,
etc.).
2. Once in a while you may encounter a person in another department who will attempt to
hurt the program with their comments, do not succumb to their attitude. Always have
favorable comments about and for them.
D. COMMUNITY
1. Remember, that many people are acquainted with you in the community; therefore, gear
your actions accordingly.
2. Constantly strive to gain good community support. We cannot maintain a successful
program without it.
E. PARENTS
1. Do not comment on the ability of a player in front of a parent and avoid comparisons.
2. If a parent or any adult has a complaint, the best approach is to talk to him/her „face-to-
face‟ rather than on the phone. Do not make the person an enemy, but try to turn them
into a friend of the program.3. Do not hesitate to refer parents to the Head Coach, but first inform him of the
situation.
4. Parents will receive a Football Program Manual, which will explain the rules and
procedures for the football program and football itself in general.

COACHING STAFF PHILOSOPHY OF PRACTICE
1 Be properly dressed out and on time for all practices.
2. Don't relax during cal, kicking game, gassers, etc. It is all-important or we would not be
doing it.
3. Time is the only thing all schools have in common We must get more done (repetitions) in
the time we have. Have drills (equipment, personnel) set up beforehand.
4. Give attention to every man on the team. Do not allow anyone to go unnoticed.
5. Do not allow things to lay around in the dressing room. Everything has a proper place. Create
pride in everything we do.
6. Do not run off right after practice. Be available to help with equipment, injuries, etc.
7. Do not accept anything less than perfection. Do not overlook a thing.
8. HUSTLE! - Enthusiasm breeds enthusiasm!
9. Strive to make your group the best on the field. This should be your personal goal - don't
compete one unit against another.
10. Strive to improve your group and each individual in at least 1 phase or focus area each day.
11. Keep your poise and confidence on the field and all other places. This will transmit to your
players.

OFFENSE
Our offensive system will be a combination of the Multiple Formation Attack with some option
and playaction, it is the best offense in football because.
1. CAN ATTACK THE ENTIRE FIELD! From sideline to sideline and goal line to
goal line.
2. FORCES A BALANCED DEFENSE! Opponents must play pass - run equally.
3. PROMOTES SOFT-CORNERS! Options and throwbacks prevent quick corner
support with the threat of the deep pass.
4. BIG-PLAY OFFENSE!
5. COMPACT PLAY PACKAGE! High execution factor.
DEFENSE
Our defensive system (Multiple Fronts) is the best defense in football because:
1. FLEXIBLE! Can adapt to the strength of the offensive team from week to week or to
situations or tendencies in the game.
2. CONTAINING (MAXIMUM PURSUIT) DEFENSE: Everyone reads andreacts to the ball - Eleven people going to the football (zone secondary).
3. FORCING DEFENSE: Coordinated, aggressive stunting system with man secondaryproduces turnovers.
4. VARIETY OF ALIGNMENTS, STUNTS AND COVERAGE: Keeps
Offense from designing a consistent attack plan.
5. TECHNIQUE, REACTION AND QUICKNESS: More important in our systemof defense than size or speed -- can be developed.
