Jack Kocur on Coaching, Mental Strength & Developing Better Water Polo Players
In Part 2 of my conversation with Jack Kocur, we dive deeper into coaching, player development and the mental side of modern water polo.
Jack shares lessons from three Olympic Games, explains why young players need international experience and a growth mindset, and discusses why cognitive awareness can be just as important as physical skills.
We also explore his coaching philosophy, the importance of connecting with athletes before directing them, and why young coaches should stop trying to be somebody else.
