The mental exhaustion of making players work together as a team and solving conflicts between them is part of a football coach’s job. Even so, football coaches are always on the media’s radar and under constant criticism. Winning is the key ingredient that helps coaches keep their job for another season or two, but the success of every match depends on the players’ performance.

Coaches not only have to keep their health in check but also must monitor their players’ collective health even more carefully, because players need to perform at their best and keep themselves fit all the time. This profession also results in burnouts for coaches, because they are on the go with the players constantly and also have to deal with the board that is overlooking the team’s funds and scrutinizing the coach’s every move. But most football coaches love their jobs despite all the stress associated with it, among the reasons being high paychecks, and regular health examinations by doctors and physicians.
