Does a coach lead teams to victory or do players lead coach to success?

A question that I have got to hear answers for because I have played and watched sports for a long time and you hear people say coaches are the reason for great success. The same thing can said about hearing about players make coaches better. My opinion is that it takes both to have a team. Good coaches now how to motivate players, prepare players and how to coach them while better players make a team a better team to coach. So its a two way street. Some coaches are great at preparing a team and getting them better, teaching them the smaller parts of the game that makes a team better while also teaching them how to play as a team. What do you think is a coach as good as its team or the players as good as there coach? Or its a combination of both?

Coach can guide you through,gives you tips and tricks ,improve your technique,but he cant win match for you.its you who have to deliver in the playing field.

I believe the coach is helpful,but it's the will of the players that matters. If the players decide they aren't going to get better then the coach can't do anything. Without their will to succeed the coach becomes nothing.

well it could be both, A coach need good players that will help him win and the players need coaches to train them to win. i believe its a two way street like you. But without great talents for the coach to train it would be very hard.

Hmm...it's a combination of both.:D Haha. Coaches coach, players play...:D Like, you can't win a game with just a coach on the field and there are no players. Likewise, even if the players are good but they don't don't have someone who can teach them and make use of the skills they have in a proper way they still can't win. I used to be a varsity player and I believe that one of the factors of why the team is still intact is because we have establish a good relationship (our coach and my team mates.:D
