ThrowsCoach
Manoa, HI
Male, 52
I am a track and field coach and my specialties are in the throwing events namely, the shot, the discus the hammer and the javelin. The training involves a lot of strength training as well as technical development. My other responsibility is in recruiting men and women (in this case women only as I am with an all female team), to represent the university in various collegiate competitions.
Hammer followed by Javelin followed by Discus and then, Shot.

It depends on how good they are and what the "attitude" problem. All cases are different and all coaches have different opinions as to the issue, their preference of that issue i.e. is it that big of a deal or is it something that they cannot tolerate. Ingeneral as long as the "attitude" is not disrupting the team, causing harm or in general can be mananged, then that athlete will remain on the team.

Yes, I did track and field in college. I was good enough to compete at an Olympics while I was in college.

Yes, but not seriously enough to get hospitalized. At practice the usual protocol is to teach safety first, where to stand, what to do or not do. In general, no one is allowed to pick up an implement and use/throw it unless they are either in the circle, or on the runway and no one is allowed to throw while there is someone in the landing area. This prevents accidents.

One way to gain from the off season is to reflect back on your performances during the season. Sit down with your coach, if possible, or by yourself and answer some general questions about your season. Questions to ask;
-what went well
-what did not go as well
-what was my best perofrmance and why
-what was my worst performance and why
-if I could change anything abiut the last season what would it be
-going forwards, what would I want to keep form the last seaon
These general answers will form the basis of what you might want to do in preparation for the next season.
