What does it take to be a really good sports coach?

Response:
A good sports coach requires a balanced mixture of personality, skill, experience and charisma.  In terms of personality, a great sports coach will have good emotional intelligence to interact with many different types of people.  In terms of skill, the coach will need to have either played the sport they coach and/or be very well trained in the art of motor skill learning.  They will need to be able to use the right words, actions and demonstrations to teach skills to players at different level.  They need the experience to understand the many different scenarios that come up during practices and games and know how to apply different strategies.  They also need the charisma to be a good leader.  Their coaching style needs to inspire their teams to perform at the best of their ability.  The leadership trust is built over a series of positive interactions with helping players to achieve their goals.
