Most summer day camp counsellors and volunteer coaches never get the opportunity to learn from experts how to deal with the kids in their charge. <\/p>\n

\u201cKids often behave immaturely,\u201d Family Resource Center executive director Carrie Goldberg told The Suburban.<\/i> \u201cWe\u2019ve designed a training seminar where you can learn to deal with them as a coach or counsellor, not as a parent, which is a really different sort of relationship.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cIt helps them to motivate the kids to work with the team,\u201d she said in an interview. \u201cIt comes up all the time. Temper tantrums. Fights. Disgruntled parents. Kids who are unmotivated or don\u2019t respect the other kids.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cIt\u2019s win-win,\u201d she added, \u201cbecause it ultimately makes things easier for the coaches and camp counsellors.\u201d <\/p>\n

Another benefit is that the techniques help to improve the youths\u2019 social and study skills.<\/p>\n

\u201cYou might be surprised at how important athletics are to imparting social, study, organizational and teamwork skills,\u201d Goldberg said. <\/p>\n

In addition, the course helps coaches and counsellors to spot issues that are beyond their ability to help with. <\/p>\n

\u201cIf you\u2019re working with a kid all summer and you see that he or she isn\u2019t focused or doesn\u2019t know how to deal with other kids or is getting touched or picked on or needs something else that you can\u2019t give him or her, that\u2019s where I come in,\u201d she explained.<\/p>\n

The Family Resource Center makes its course available through municipalities and volunteer sports associations. The organization was founded in 1999 to help youth with attention deficit disorder. During the ensuing 15 years, the Pierrefonds-based organization has expanded its scope geographically\u2014reaching as far north as the Laurentians\u2014has added many other fields to its program. It now works with young adults up to age 25, so its support doesn\u2019t end when a youth turns 18.<\/p>\n
