While trying to think of someone I might want to interview on a topic of my choice that interests me I think of my old high school soccer coach. I played soccer my whole life and had an abundance of different coaches. My dad being my first one and I always knew one day I would want to coach my son or daughter. Inspiring the youth and letting them know that the memories they create with their teammates will be something they look back on for ever.
On a fall back person I can interview it would be my old assistant coach or possibly my father. My coaches are still there to this day and I feel would be more then happy to see me again. Soccer to me meant a lot I put countless hours into it and I’m wondering why my coaches are still doing it to this day. I just want to figure out if it still gives them the satisfaction that I hope it brings to me when it’s my chance to watch my kids and be on the sidelines with them.

Hi Nathan! I enjoyed reading your post! This is something I get as soccer was a big part of my childhood, as well as my parents coaching too. I would not recommend you interviewing your father. I feel like although he may have some great input and things to say, I think interviewing someone outside of your close family helps you get more information (the full truth) as well as the opportunity to practice your interview skills in a more professional environment in a way. I do feel like this topic would be very interesting and you would do a great job since you clearly have a lot of passion on the topic. I think you may run into challenges in finding some good, deep questions to ask. I think you may run out early as there is only so much you can ask. I am really looking forward to hearing how you turn this interest into questions!

Your project idea to interview your old high school soccer coach and potentially your assistant coach or father provides an great opportunity to explore the impact of sports mentorship and the motivations behind continued involvement in coaching. Be mindful of balancing your personal experiences and perspectives with your interviewees. While your own experiences can provide context, make sure to prioritize the voices of your interview subjects.
