In episode 36 of the Coaching the Athletic Mind podcast, host Megan Weaver continues part two of a three-part series with longtime coach and sports parent Mike Dickerson, noting a shout-out to the West Genny baseball team’s first state title. They discuss coaching and raising male versus female athletes, including how boys often struggle more with listening, impulsiveness, and processing emotions at younger ages, while girls tend to take instruction quickly but can become harder on themselves as they get older, sometimes driven by expectations and perfectionism. Mike shares his “24-hour rule” of not revisiting games unless athletes bring it up, emphasizes teaching athletes to operate in the “gray area” by valuing small, winning plays like moving runners, and describes both support and bias encountered when his daughter played baseball. Mike says he enjoys coaching female athletes more and stresses knowing each player to communicate effectively.
