Study

Read books, magazines, journals and articles related to your sport – Take the time to become a student of your sport. Learn all you can. Read material like these: Sports magazines, coaching journals, sport history, and articles on contemporary issues within the sport. These items for study help you understand and communicate better with your subjects. Avoid materials which have sports fans as their primary audience. Sport Mentors must maintain a competitor’s approach to the sport, as opposed to a fan’s mentality.
