Transmission of Message is Inappropriate
There are appropriate and inappropriate times to communicate with athletes, especially deaf athletes. Since deaf athletes may not hear directions from a coach during the actual playing time, a coach should communicate important instructions during warm-up periods and timeouts. Coaches of deaf athletes should make sure the athletes know their roles before going onto the playing field. To do this, a coach should establish playing roles during practice in order to minimize uncertainty.
