I guess most of us were nervous about coaching for the first time. Just coach to your strengths and what you know. My first coaching gig was trampolining. Now I have never coached before nor done trampolining. But I was a gymnast and was going to the gym and doing workouts, so understood strength and conditioning, discipline, body form, and the basics of pointing toes and holding your landings. So that is what i focussed on. The things I knew and I made sure the kids did them well. When I moved over to netball 7 years later at least this was a sport I had played for 30 odd years and was still playing so I knew and was comfortable with the skills, but teaching them is another, and teaching them to a bunch of teenage girls is a whole different story. But again, use your strengths and develop your weakness, which is what you are doing with the kids anyway. Have fun and so will they. Good luck.
