"When you hear something bad about someone, don't automatically judge them. Wait until you've looked at ALL the evidence from different sources and consider people innocent until proven guilty with solid evidence."

A coach should never underestimate a team. If you underestimate a team, they could end up being really good and beat you.

"Never give an order that can’t be obeyed."

Coaches can't expect too much from their players or the players will not want to work for them. They need to have an equal balance of fun and work.

"Do NOT be someone who always argues with others or acts better than them"

This advice is good because as a coach you can't always be arguing with the referees or the coach on the other team. You have to stay calm and respect the other team/coach.

"The challenge of leadership is to be strong, but not rude; be kind, but not weak; be bold, but not bully; be thoughtful, but not lazy; be humble, but not timid; be proud, but not arrogant; have humor, but without folly."

Coaches need to learn when it's the best time to act upon things or say their opinion. Their players have a say too and should be open to explaining it.

"He who has never learned to obey cannot be a good commander."

If the coach has never learned how to listen to others than they can never learn how to teach. If the coach was never nice to and obeyed their leader as a kid they shouldn't be able to command others.

"If someone is working hard toward a goal, no matter how slowly they are working, NEVER discourage them."

As a coach you need to realize that there may be players who learn slower, so don't get frustrated with them and bring them down. As long as they are still working hard and trying then they will succeed.

"If a ruler wants his soldiers to fight hard for them—he needs to reward them well. Treat your men as you would your own beloved sons. And they will follow you into the deepest valley."

Coach's should treat their players like they are their own. For players to feel welcome and want to play the game they need to be prepared to help the kids. When someone does a good thing, the coach should reward their player.

“He who advances without seeking fame,

Who retreats without escaping blame,

He whose one aim is to protect his people and serve his lord,

The man is a jewel of the Realm”

The coach should value his team and not the fame he will get from it. He should also take responsibility and protect his players

"A good ruler is cautious when he makes decisions because he knows if he carefully thinks things through, he likely won't be wrong,"

This is good advice to a coach because if decisions are made too quick than the wrong one will be made. But, if the coach takes their time to solve a problem, they can think things through

"If you  are honest, that is good. But if you are so honest that you just “tell it like it is” and don’t care if you hurt people’s feelings—that is rude!"

This quote is good for coach advice because although coach's should be honest to their players, they should not be to honest that it will hurt someone's feeling.

"When a leader says kind things to people it raises their self confidence"-Lao Tzu

This is good advice for a coach because the more you praise your players for everything good they did their confidence will rise and they will play better.

"As a leader, make your people feel as if all the good things in your country are good BECAUSE of THEIR hard work, not yours!"

This is good advice for a coach because make the players feel as if all of there hard work and training payed off. Also the players should feel you won because of them.
