... must be opened minded and willing to learn.  Playing experience is helpful but it is not the most important aspect of coaching.  Becoming a good coach takes years of experience and a good deal of time. 

... must be a coach for all the players, not just their family members.

... must manage the parents as well as the players.

Time Commitment:
Typically, the teams will practice 2 times per week and play travel games on Saturdays and Sundays. Weekday practices are scheduled to begin and end somewhere within the 5:30 to 9:00 p.m. time frame and days and times depend on gym availability.

Team Selection:
Sometimes the Board selects coaches before the evaluations but occasionally it is required to see which team the players are placed on before a coach is selected.  If a coach is selected before the evaluations, the coach will be utilized as one of the evaluators.  The evaluations are used for team placement for the winter leagues.  The AAU teams and summer teams are formed from prior knowledge of the girls.

Funds & Fees:
All payments and checks must be made out to Fishers Tigers Basketball.  A coach may collect these funds to pass on to the Treasurer but they should not be deposited into a personal account.  All payments on the team's behalf should be made by the Club.  Contact the Treasurer if you need a check.
