ARP Interviews

The interview that I conducted was great because I myself learned a few things about coaching. I interviewed my coach and was astonished at some f his answers due to his character. First I will give you a background; he is from Russia and has played soccer for Indiana University and Division I school. He is very proper and always chooses to do the right thing and never takes shortcuts. After the interview I found that he is human after all and will resort to any type of help that is not illegal in order to win. The setting was the locker room while a soccer match was going on. I asked a couple of questions but the one that surprised me the most was when I asked if he would consider buying IPod’s for everyone if it gave us a boost? He said yes before I was done! I later told him that I was going to tell him what results I gathered hoping it was that music does have a positive effect. He said that whatever helps a player perform is acceptable only if it is legal. He compared it to soccer shoes where they help you perform and so we buy them. Music helps you perform and so we should listen to it. This was my interview.
