LOGINHow to best organise your coaching sessions
Avoiding complicated practices and being creative with area set-ups will help minimise disruption and give you more time with your players
Having an organised session can have two significant impacts on your coaching.
Not only will it help maximise the contact time you have with your players, it can also be an effective tool in managing their behaviour.
One of the greatest frustrations of a coach is the limited period they get with their players. Being organised will allow players to spend more time actually playing and practising - and by keeping them active, they will have fewer opportunities to become bored or distracted.
The first step in having an organised session is to ensure that the practices we design and deliver are simple to set up - and to understand.
A complicated practice will undoubtedly take an extended period of time to set up. It will also take the players longer to work out what it is they actually have to do and it is possible that in some instances they might not actually be able to figure it out.
Putting the players into a practice that is simple to play will get them active and engaged quickly.
