Reminder to All: Coaching can be a very rewarding experience. But it is very important that all coaches keep a proper perspective. Dexter Parks and Recreation Coaches are not to have a "win-at-all-cost"  goal. The primary goal is to teach and develop in a very fun atmosphere. If you are interested in coaching for Dexter Parks and Recreation please consider the following responsibilities as a coach: a) providing a safe physical environment, b) being an effective and positive communicator, c) being able to teach the skills and rules of the sport, d) be a positive role model. Other things to consider before becoming a coach is that you will need to have a comprehension of the rules and knowledge of the game. Dexter Parks and Recreation wants to provide everyone with an enjoyable experience, and we want to develop a players' fundamental skills, and to get players to perform to the best of their ability. Please realize that all of the coaches for Dexter Parks and Recreation volunteer their time to the youth of the programs.
