| Abstract | Coaches often enter their profession in hopes of helping others and making the world a better place in which to live. In this narrative, the Author recounts a volleyball recruiting trip to Denver, Colorado. He stays in an area of the city plagued by homelessness and crime. What he saw and experienced made him question the real impact he has on others as a collegiate volleyball coach. How could working as a volleyball coach be important when so much pain, suffering, and misery exist? Each year intercollegiate coaches bring thousands of students to colleges and universities across the country. Many of the student-athletes prepare to work in helping professions that serve both individuals in need of help and the broader society as well. As such, coaches do indirectly assist in addressing social and health problems plaguing our society. (As Provided). |
