Hey me and my friends are trying to figure out the same question. We have figured out till now is \n\n1. To teach and preach football to everybody by spreading the excitement that we get by watching matches.\n\n2. If possible get sponsors interested in the sport.\n\n3. The most important is to force the National football administrators to get a better coach.\n\n4. Get the youngsters to know and play football better by teaching whomsoever you can.\n\n         My friend its kinda tough but u know that its never easy. Also it gives a nice feeling that India had once reached the fifa world cup finals and then didnt qualify due to playing barefooted.

ask the coach what he/she wants you to do.

The above are good, but there's a couple things missing. First, you need to get with one of your coaches and have them teach you how to run proper routes. As a QB, you more than anyone else should realize how important it is to run routes correctly and not round them off. Second, you need to get someone to throw bricks to you (no Im not kidding). Catching bricks will help you learn to catch with your hands first, instead of trying to trap the ball against your body (if you trap a brick against your chest a couple times, I promise it will help break you of the habit.) Good receivers don't wait for the ball to come into their body; they pluck it out of the air, and that's what the brick drill will enforce. Obviously you don;t want someone winging bricks at your head, but I think you understand what I mean. You do have to be careful though, cause it's real easy to break your fingers if you grab it wrong, and of course it's gonna not feel too good if you miss and it hits you in the chest/gut/manbag or lands on your foot. Again, talk to your coach and I'm sure he can show you the right way to run the drill.

Im shortly going to be a Sophomore, but i made varsity my freshman year. Ill tell you this..\n\n-You have to show the coach that you have a passion for the sport.\n-Show him/her that you will try your hardests wether you are winning or losing.\n-Show the coach  you have HEART.\n\nBut thats not all--\n\n-You have to have great potential. \n-You need to have good speed and skills.\n-Endurance.\n-Show that you would put yourself on the line for anything.\n-The ability to encourage other players to try their hardest. A potential backbone to the team.\n\nAnd at try-outs... give it 150%. Show the coach that you are out there for the sport, and nothing else (like talking to the other people). Be the first to every ball, challenge whomever has the ball, and show your DEDICATION.\n\nIf you have all of this, you are truly varsity soccer material! Any coach would be lucky to have you on his team!\n\nP.S. try and do "off season" stuff. like play club soccer when you are out of your high school season.\n\n\nGood luck!

I've been teaching for a number of years, have been interviewed many times, and after being hired, have sat on interview committees when hiring new teachers. Always ask about the interview process before going to the interview. You can get this information from the district office. You should also find out some basic facts about the district, like mission statement, enrollment, sudent/teacher ratio, etc. High performing and low performing districts will be looking for different things in a teacher. The process can vary widely from district to district and from state to state. Some districts have very formal systems that involve several levels of screening, while others are more informal. \n\nOur district uses a committee made up of the superintendent, board members, teachers, parents, and classified staff. We ask each candidate the same questions, in the same order. We will ask questions pertaining to classroom management techniques, knowledge of the grade level state standards, feelings about collaboration with colleagues, knowledge about good teaching techniques (pedagogy), some hypothetical situations that you might be confronted with, and so on. In our district you would almost certainly be asked about your ability to adapt curriculum for mainstreamed special ed students, and differentiated (BIG BUZZ WORD) instruction in general.\n\nGood eye contact is essential! Also, when you are ushered in, if at all possible, when introduced to each committee member, shake hands firmly. When the interview is over, do so again, thanking them for the opportunity to interview, no matter how you thought the interview went. As previously mentioned, ask questions! \n\nThat is just an example of one interview scenario, and I'm sure the variations are myriad. I've heard of one district that asks candidates what the meaning of life is, which I think is inappropriate. Good Luck!

At only 13 you have a variety of things to try. Corner and WR being most obvious. Don't listen to the "you are too short" stuff. You will grow and the experience you get now will help in the future. Where do YOU feel comfortable playing? Talk to the coach and ask for an honest assessment of your skills. Hell, try out for LineBacker if you have the heart for it.

"What's your weakness?" : Something like, "I'm a bit of a control freak, I like to make sure that eveything is going smoothly, and the only way I can do that is to be in total control. I need to learn to delegate more". Makes you sound like you're a workaholic, they love that sort of sh*t.\n\n"Where do you see yourself in five years?" : Not sure, I'd probably plump for something like "I'd like to develop the skills I have now, and be in a position to be able to pass the knowledge and experience I've gained to the other members of my team, hopefully in the form of a managerial position".\n\nIt's all about playing the game, as I'm sure you know.\n\nGood luck!!!!!!!!!!

My best advice for you is to get the backing of a local field and find a teacher who would be willing to be a coach or at least an adviser.  If you're not already a frequent visitor of www.pbnation.com go there.  There are lots of threads on there from people who have started up teams at their schools and there's lots of info on how they did it.

My SCITT interview (6yrs ago) was no different from a regular interview for regular jobs to be honest.\n\nWhy do you want to be a teacher?\nWhat characteristics would you take to any school?\nStrengths/weaknesses?\nWhat motivates you?\nHow do you relax?\nThe favourite question of - where do you see yourself in 5 or 10yrs?\nTeam player?\nShare experience & skills?\nWhat in life do you enjoy?\nWhat would be a good lesson in your eyes?\nThe ability to 'PLAN' & manage your time.\n\nMore importantly for SCITT was that they were looking for 'real' experience that could give you the edge in the classroom - what could you give that a 'I've always been a teacher' might not be able to the classroom.\nMany pupils turn-off because they think that school has nothing to do with the real world - hopefully you'll be able to tell them that it does! (Many of the kids I teach find it wierd that I've had different jobs before being a teacher - from working at KFC to Managing a team of 80 & a budget of £00,000's)\n\nI hadn't had any 'teaching' experience before the interview but did play on my sport experience - team player, enthusiastic, energetic, winner, coach etc ...... even though it was an ICT SCITT.\n\nDress - It's an interview, so dress smartly/professionally! Many schools are now making an issue with not only the pupils uniform but the slothes the teachers wear!\n\nFinally. A lot of teachers that we have interviewed at my school recently and even a trainee teacher I supervised this year have failed to get their message across simly because they were so 'flat'. They showed no emotion, and this doesn't transmit well to kids (or observing folk). Animate yourself (not too much - don;t want you flapping your arms around and smiling like a loon) and look interested in what you are telling people!\n\nJust try and have fun, smile, look confident and don;t be afraid to ask question.\n\nI'm just about to finish my 5th year as a teacher. I'm no longer teaching ICT as my core subject & am now the Head of Business Studies.\n\nThe one thing I remember from my mentor as a trainee was 'don't lose who you are - remember you are nickthesurfer' ...... I've always been known to my friends as nickthesurfer & had an appropriate email address!  Sounds like an odd thing to say but he was right. School can be hard work but I make time to surf, mountain bike & have a lot of fun.That way I go back to school (usually) with enthusiasm, energy and a WANT to teach!\n\nAs a teacher you have two side - the teacher and 'you'!\n\nps. 5 years in & I still like teaching :)

ETHICS & SPORTSMANSHIP  Talk About It...\nClick here to go to the FORUM discussion group at CHARACTER COUNTS! ... Enliven a discussion, or start a new one, about sportsmanship and coaching for character.\n--------------------------------------------------------------------------------\n   \nMORE ON CC! SPORTS\n\nTwo-day PVWH Centification Training\n\nOne-day PVWH Summits\n\nThe Arizona Sports Summit Accord\n\nStrategies for Implementing the Accord\n\nAccord Signatories:\nNational Organizations\nOrganizations (by state)\nColleges (by division)\nDiv. 1A (by football conf)\nIndividual Endorsements\n\nThe T.E.A.M. game plan\n\nCompilation of sports codes of conduct organized by the Six Pillars of Character \n  ETHICS\n\nEthical Considerations Pervade Every Aspect of a Coach's Behavior\n\nAny act that can be evaluated in terms of moral principles like honesty, respect, responsibility, fairness, caring and good sportsmanship has ethical significance.\n\nEverything a Coach Says or Does Sends a Message About Values. Coaches are often the most influential adults in the lives of youngsters and adolescents. What they say and don't say, do and don't do - on and off the field - sends a message about values and reveals something about the coaches' priorities and character. Thus, coaches must always ask themselves: "What message am I sending?"\n\nEthics Is Not Always Simple. Though many people trivialize discussions of ethics in sports as if knowing and doing the right thing were a simple matter, in fact, it is enormously complicated at times, and it takes extraordinary vigilance and a strong character to perceive and properly deal with all the ethical opportunities and obligations that arise in coaching. Thus, when it comes to ethics, you don't have to be sick to get better.\n\nA Good Coach. A good coach is not only a competent coach but a good person who is dedicated to using the sports experience to help others become better people and citizens as well as better athletes. A good coach consciously strives to live up to the highest standards of ethics and sportsmanship.\n\nWhat Is Ethics?\n\nEthics refers to moral principles of duty and virtue that define what is right and wrong and prescribe how we should behave to be good and honorable.\n\nDuty and Virtue. The dual concepts of duty and virtue suggest both a minimal, mandatory aspect of ethics (duty) and an realm of special moral excellence that goes beyond what is required (virtue).\n\nDuty. In sports, duty refers to the minimal expectations embodied in core ethical principles. According to the Arizona Sports Summit Accord these principles are the "Six Pillars of Character" - trustworthiness, respect, responsibility, fairness, caring, and good citizenship. It is, therefore, unethical to violate these standards of duty by being dishonest, disrespectful, irresponsible, unfair, uncaring or ignoring requirements of good citizenship.\n\nVirtue. Virtue refers to a special degree of moral excellence above minimal ethical requirements. A person of character should aspire to be virtuous and virtuous conduct is highly commendable, but a person is not unethical for failing to go above and beyond his or her moral duties.\n\nExamples of Virtue\n\n1936 Olympic Games. Luz Long: In the 1936 Berlin Summer Olympics, Hitler said, "Americans ought to be ashamed of themselves for letting their medals be worn by Negroes. I myself would never shake hands with one of them." Jesse Owens, the great American track and field star had already embarrassed the German dictator by winning gold medals in the sprint and relay. But in his first two attempts at the long jump he stepped over the foul line. He recalls being scared stiff that he would foul on his third attempt and not make it to the finals. His fiercest rival in the event was Luz Long, the German athlete. Despite the risk of infuriating Hitler and the chance that Owens would beat him, Long took a towel and laid

Be involved in your community, volunteer at local head start centers, do not hang out at bars (who wants to leave their kid with the local drunk?) get a back ground check, offer this to possible employers. If possible, bring a portfoilio with you to interviews. Include things such as awards you've been given, and things that you've created, like if you've ever written a children's story (even if it was while you were in school) or if you've ever made a game for children. Also, make a mock lesson plan for a week including small motor, gross motor, cognitive developement, art, science, math, and reading. The lesson plan will impress the interviewer, since this is a basic task expected of child care workers.
