*The Athletes interviewed Podcast* ( questions and other details)

The Athletes Interviewed Podcast 

By: Hazel LeBlanc  


Hi, i already made an intro for my podcast on my blog, but i wanted to go over the typical questions i ask athletes and a little deeper into what each season of interviewing looks like.

- Hazel


THE QUESTIONS:

The questions can vary depending on the sport but these  tend to be the base questions I usually ask,

there is also always plenty of time to have conversation and to ask me questions during the recording.

instead of having them answer these on spot i have a pre-made packet i hand out,

with the questions that i have them answer and give back to me so

we can go more in-depth in the actual interview.  i also don't always just ask questions i like to have good amount of

conversation as well.

Questions :   

**please answer in order**

  1. What's your name?

  2. What sports do you play?

  3. What position do you play?

  4. And please  expand on what that position does and the importance to the specific sport,

  5. for those whom might not be familiar 

  6. How long have you played said sport?

  7. What inspired you to play this sport? Parents, friends, teachers etc.

  8. Is there a coach or athlete that you look up to? And why?

  9. What's some advice you've gained from past coaches that have made you a better sports player?

  10. Do you see yourself continuing sports and making it to the bigger leagues?

  11. What's some advice you would give to someone looking into the sport you play?

  12.  And finally what do you believe is the biggest challenge athletes are facing  today?  And why?


The Plan: 

Here is my plan for the seasons i'm always willing to make accommodations this is just the base plan, i have also planned the seasons based on the actual sport seasons: 

 Season 1 : softball, Baseball, Basketball, and soccer  

Season 2 : volleyball, football, basketball, and ice hockey 

Season 3 : Pickle ball, baseball,  tennis , and lacrosse

H ello I'm Hazel  , and welcome to my blog.  here (on this blog) I will be gong over interviewing tactics and interviewing athletes  asking them a series of questions Witch  will be listed with each episode of my podcast along with the tactics, I used for the specific episode/ interview. here's a little bit about why is started this podcast and blog:   what inspired me? well as an athlete myself I've always wanted to  interview other people my age and get there perspective on sports and the sport they play or watch, I thought it would be fun to ask them questions I get asked often to see how they answer and like I said before to get there perspective on the athletic world  and also hopefully  learn some things about the sports that I don't  play or even the ones I do.  what is my Goal? well like said before I want to interview athletes but, I also want to create a blog that can help people like me who are curious about different sports ...

Hey, its me again (Hazel) in this post I'm gonna go over interviewing tactics you can use while interviewing people and even if you'r being interviewed. So here are the 5 steps I've used.   1) Try your best not to be nervous and if you are again try your best not to show it. 2)  Be honest but not too honest just go with the flow, adapt to the "mood"  3) DO NOT over plan when the thought of interviewing someone or being interviewed comes to mind we tend to get really nervous and start making all these plans like I need a script or what am I gonna say so it sounds professional, instead think slow and have a few ideas written down .  4) "But" , "like" and "um" are your enemy's when it comes to the interviewing world don't get to  paranoid trying not to use them a few here and there are ok just try with a little less fluff.  5) And finally feel comfortable enough to make a few jokes and most importantly HAVE FUN don't be too c...
