coaching assingment#2- leadership class

         In this essay i will be discussing about the movie "miracle" some keys points i will be discussing in this essay are 3 characteristics and examples from the movie to back up my points, also we are to make comparisons to other leaders in the movie. I hope you enjoy.

          This movie was based on the tournament know as miracle on ice where the united states defeated the soviet union 4-3 they call it miracle on ice because everyone thought that the soviet union was impossible to beat but the Americans pulled it off. The Movie is based on the coach of the Americans Herb Brooks as he guides the team to victory.

           I think this movie shows a lot of leadership by the coach and also the players. I think the coach showed most of the leadership in the movie because he put his job before his family and made sure that he was gonna have a good team by working out conflicts between other teammates and also it shows that he is the glue that holds this team together buy say that if he can get the team to hate him then they will all have to someone to hate besides the other teammates.

           In the movie a part in the movie that i thought was very powerful was when he kept making the players skate back and forth line to line it showed how the coach was trying to make them mad at him and it showed how dedicated these players were to the team as well but at the moment when almost everyone was on there knees coughing i thought at least a couple were gonna back out then .

           Another favorite from that movie was when Herb got into a fight with his wife because he was gonna start putting hockey over his family. It shows how dedicated Herb is to his team and how much time and effort he is willing to put in to win the golden medal.

     
              Also i think that in many ways the captain of the USA team Mike Eruzione would've had to shown lots of leadership as he lead his team out on to the ice against the undefeated soviet union. This movie is going to help us a lot and has shown me what being a true leader is like how you have to do whats right for your team and make sure that you have given your hardest to get what you want for you and your team.

              This was my essay on the miracle on ice movie. I hoped you enjoyed.
