'Everyday life'' has become a popular issue in academic studies, for coach how to deal with the routine of everyday life? To put it more precisely, how does a coach strike a balance among game, family and career promotion? It is then a critical topic in coaching life that necessarily to deal with. This study intends to offer a possible interpretation through the perspective of coaching philosophy. Following the light of Arnolad van Gennep, this study utilizes his concept of rites of passage and its three phases, namely, separation, transition and incorporation as main theoretical background to illustrate the impact brought by sport competition to life and its effect over living world. I found that in coaching life, staying with family members is ascetic but recharging; for the pressure of promotion is both torturing and motivating; game planning is challenging and nourishing; in societal aspect, it brings impact to diploma doctrine and the value of sports. Four major difficulties were also found in being a coach. Firstly, it is hard to find recognition from family. Secondly, only limited and scattered time is available for academic writing. Thirdly, it is difficult to stay emotional detachment from the result of game. Lastly, support from the public is usually scarce. Through a detached position and the way of separation, I claimed that these worries were often brought by over identification to this work. In concluding words, this article identifies the uniqueness, challenges and grandness in this job through the testament of coaching. Using the practice of zen as the separation of identification could sort out worries. ''Be here now'' is a pivotal way to cope with multiple roles in coaching life. |
