A good coach plays several essential roles that contribute to the development and success of their riders. Here are some key roles:
1. Mentor - A coach guides riders not only in their sport but also in personal growth, offering advice and wisdom based on experience.
2. Motivator - They inspire and encourage riders to push their limits, fostering a positive mindset and determination to achieve goals.
3. Teacher - Coaches educate riders about techniques, strategies, and rules of the sport, helping them improve their skills and understanding.
4. Strategist - They develop game plans and strategies to maximize the riders strengths and develop blind spots.
5. Communicator - Effective communication is crucial. A good coach provides clear instructions, feedback, and support, ensuring riders understand their roles and responsibilities.
6. Disciplinarian - They enforce rules and standards of behavior, promoting discipline and respect within the team environment.
7. Supporter - Coaches provide emotional and moral support, helping riders deal with pressure, setbacks, and successes.
8. Evaluator - They assess riders performance, setting benchmarks for improvement and helping them identify areas for growth.
9. Role Model - Coaches serve as examples of sportsmanship, integrity, and work ethic, influencing the behavior and attitudes of their athletes.
10. Team Builder - They foster a sense of teamwork and camaraderie, creating an environment where riders feel valued and connected.
Each of these roles contributes to the overall development of athletes, both in their sport and in life.
However, one of the most important traits of a good coach is being able to deal with the unexpected!
Things go wrong, rarely do things go according plan. Being able to manage situations in a clam efficient manner especially around horses, is for me the most essential quality of a good coach 💪

young people getting into horses really need to take this to heart......put in your time with good mentors,and learn some marketable skills. Too many think they should be riding not cleaning, and most don't even know how to longe a horse/pull a mane/apply a stable wrap/fit tack correctly/this list goes on and on........

At Dalways Bawn we know that practicalities of modern life can challenge the ideal, but whatever your horse’s regime applying the 3 F’s (thankfully now being taught more and more in many equine courses and establishments) will support their physical and mental wellbeing. 1. Freedom, to move and act naturally. Ideally provide daily turnout or access to a school or yard, but even when stabled ‘Freedoms’ are possible. Ensure your horse’s stable is large enough for them to move, lie down and get up comfortably, and encourage movement by placing forage feeders, water and Salt Licks etc. at different points around the box. 2. Friends. As social, herd dwelling animals, horses need their friends. Ideally establish a small, safe group of friends with shared turnout to allow social interaction. Stable horses next to their friends, where they can see each other, and ideally touch. 3. Forage, should be the basis of any horse’s diet, and increasing forage and fibre reduces the risk of many equine health issues. However remember the forage based diet must be balanced year round, currently our horses are strip grazed in any fields that could be slightly too rich for them at this time of year and ‘free ranging’ in our big holiday field where the grass is perfect thanks to James Caldwell (aka Dad’s) superb management ❤️👌 #equinutritive #fedonbaileys #chunkymonkeysaddles (3Fs borrowed from Kate Hore RNutr (Animal))
