Introduction
Not about us being self-righteous/know it all Volunteers do great job No volunteers = no Grassroots football BUT can some things be done better? Just because things happened certain way when we were younger, not necessarily right PLEASE keep open mind
Sideline Parents
Following types of parent identified: Uninterested (never present) Overcritical (never satisfied) Yells from sidelines (often louder than coach) Coaches from sidelines (often contradicting coaches) De Knop et al (1998) Each can have negative impact on child, coach, team & whole club. Such parents can disrupt to level causing attrition
An Alternative...
Which corner(s) are most important at which age? (technical, tactical, physical, psychological/social)
Activity
69 Technical, social, very basic tactical 9 12 Technical, social, some tactical 12 16 Technical, some tactical, social, basic physical/psychological 16 18+ ALL corners
Player rotation (total football) - rota Player wanting to change position later in development Using weaker foot important Play out from defence = more chance of retaining possession Possession = more chance to score/less to concede & more attractive
How?
Small-sided practices (SSGs) No queues Inclusion of all players
How We Learn...
Coaching cant just train people to hoover up predetermined, bite-sized gobbets of knowledge In real-life we learn by: Watching others (role models) Trying it ourselves Asking questions, when & if we need to Trying different scenarios: trial & error Visualising how things might pan out & rehearsing various outcomes
What is Talent/Ability?
Current performance poor indicator of ability - mediated by other influences & can change drastically during growth spurt: Genes (physical) Training (environment) Correct support from parents/coaches Psychology (mindset) Luck!
Long-Term Player Development (LTPD) Good Approach (some flaws) Sports scientists: sensitive periods in development where effects of training maximised Take 8 - 12 years of training for talented athlete to become elite (10,000 hours) Model identifies appropriate training at each stage
Stage 1: FUNdamentals (6 - 9)
Participate as many sports as possible Introduction to simple rules/ethics of sports Appropriate/correct running, jumping & throwing techniques taught using FUN games:
ABC's (Agility, Balance, Coordination and Speed) RJT (Running, Jumping, Throwing) KGBs (Kinaesthetics, Gliding, Buoyancy, Striking with a body part) CKs (Catching, Kicking, Striking with an implement)
Coaching Methods
Which did you prefer from practical session? Why? Inclusion: making sure everyone involved equally (no favouritism especially own child) How: no bus queues & equal playing time Which players need more playing time? Less developed (may be late bloomer)?
Praise/Overpraise
Guy Claxton: Children praised all time less creative & imaginative & less confident to learn on own... become addicted to stream of praise & approval. They learn for approval, not intrinsic pleasure & purpose of getting better Carol Dweck: NEVER praise natural ability BUT praise success through prolonged effort
Language
Dealing in maybes rather than absolutes effective i.e. this could be true rather than this is true Guy Claxton: If you talk to me in Could Be language, I am immediately in a world of openness & possibility as soon as you tell me something Is, all I can do is my best to understand & remember it
