Kristin Graczyk
Midfielder/Forward - FC Gold Pride

Age started playing soccer: 9

Favorite AYSO memory: My younger brother started playing AYSO and I thought it looked like fun, so I begged my parents to let me play too. It was great...to just play with friends and have fun.

Favorite coach and why: Scott Stapp. He was my first AYSO coach. He played everybody on the team and made soccer really fun. He made me love the game.

What makes a great coach? Coaches today are too into winning. I go to youth games and all I hear are coaches yelling, "You're not dribbling right!" and "I told you to dribble around the cones and you're not doing that!" That kind of negativity isn't going to help and just makes little kids want to cry. A good coach shouldn't make her players feel like they're wrong. Kids need positive reinforcement to enjoy the game and grow into themselves as players.

Positive Coaching is one of the fundamental philosophies of AYSO!

Parents, Coaches and Referees!!!
