Play the Game, Know the Game, Teach the Game, Coach the Game - Atlanta Select Coaches' Team

The coaches of the Atlanta Select play as a team in a local Adult League. They believe that playing or have played the game of basketball, adds substance to the role of being an effective coach. Playing the game provides the coach an understanding of the dynamics that a player must face in game situations and gives the coach a perspective of the player. Thus, when the coach is in the coaching role, he/she has a better connection to the player and the game overall. Coaches themselves must be life long learners of the game of basketball and be able to play the game as well as teach and coach. The Atlanta Select coaches are on a winning streak. You can see them play on Wednesday nights at Rosel Fann Recreational Center.
