  1. Sports Coaching BTEC Level 2 Diploma in Sport Carlos Munoz

  2. Session aims • To describe/explain three different techniques that are used by coaches to improve the performance of athletes • To evaluate three different techniques that are used by coaches to improve performance of athletes

  3. Techniques to improve performance • Coaches in all sports have a number of techniques at their disposal that they can use to improve the performance of their athletes • We will now research a number of different techniques

  4. Pair discussion Task 1 • In pairs, discuss what different ways you think exist for coaching performance and describe each one

  5. Research, draw and report I • You have been grouped into pairs, are you are required to research a specific technique used by coaches to improve performance. The below list will inform you what aspect you need to research. • Pair A: Coaching diaries/logbook • Pair B: Performance profiles • Pair C: Observation and analyses You must present your work using a spider diagram. Task 2

  6. The spider diagram must include • Clear heading • Sub headings • Between 16 – 20 words • Pictures • Numbers • Symbols

  7. Research, draw and report II • Task2.12 people from each group must go to another table and gather as much information about the other 2 techniques used by coaches to improve performance. • Meanwhile, 1 person from each group must stay with their poster and explain to the learners that approach them what their poster means and answer any questions (10 minutes)

  8. Research, draw and report III • Task 2.2. Students return to there group and must now complete their posters about the other 2 coaching techniques used to improve performance (10 minutes)

  9. Presentation of new knowledge • Task 2.3: Each group must present the topic they researched using their poster.

  10. Coaching diaries/logbooks • Diaries and logbooks come in different sizes, paper or electronic. They can be used to record personal thoughts, make appointments or log training sessions. Diaries can be useful in aiding self reflection, planning and evaluation of coaching sessions.

  11. Coaching diaries/logbooks • Guidelines for getting the most from your diary are as follows: • Complete the diary soon after the coaching session • Write down what happened in order • Focus on what went well first • Describe what needs to improve • Action plan to develop areas for improvement • The benefits of diaries are that they can show progress over a period of time and are usually honest and describe how you felt about a situation at a time.

  12. Performance profiles • If a trampolinist is not performing a somersault correctly or is not coping with the physical demands of the sport, the coach or the trainer can design a suitable exercise or coaching programme. • But, what if a trampolinist has a problem with nerves before the start of the competition, or they have some kind of mental block that stops them from executing the skill.

  13. Although not obvious, the following psychological factors can affect sporting performance: • Confidence: belief in yourself and your abilities • Concentration: the ability to attend to relevant cues • Control: the extent to which you feel able to influence techniques • Commitment: the level to which you apply yourself • Re-focusing after errors: ability to adjust to negative outcomes in a positive way • Enjoyment: the amount of fun you can have

  14. Observation and analysis • It is possible to be observed and analysed by your team or club mates, your coach and yourself, particularly if you have access to a video of your performance

  15. Interviews • You could ask a performer about strengths and weaknesses, or you could ask them about what tactics they might use against a particular opponent.

  16. Swot analyses • This is a subjective analyses of a performance or performers ability. • S – strengths • W – weaknesses • O – opportunities • T – threats

  18. Simulation or conditioned practise • This is about artificially creating a competition like situation in a practise session, or a particular condition that may be likely to happen in a competitive situation

  19. A coach may consider the merits of initially removing defenders, or outnumbering them in a practise session aimed at improving attacking principles. The defenders can then be added once the techniques have been well practised • Extra defenders may be added so that the attacking technique could be practised under greater pressure. • Defenders may perform one of three roles according to the conditions required by the coach • Passive (offering little resistance) • Active (normal conditions) • Pressure (extra intensity)

  20. Conditioned games are used to recreate a situation that is likely to happen in a game, such as practising defending free kicks in football.

  21. Video analyses • Gives the observer an objective record of performance. The benefit of video is the playback feature, including slow motion, which is the playback feature, including slow motion, which can be used to demonstrate skill execution, tactical efficiency or a more general generic performance evaluation. • http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hGzy9i309kA&feature=related

  22. Notation • It is a way of collecting data and can be done by hand or computer • It’s a form a literally noting down the data on a sheet of paper using a predefined set of symbols. • Advantage: It is a cheap way of producing detailed information in a skilled manner to allow access to detailed information to coach or performer • Disadvantage: Prone to human error, and possibly difficult to interpret

  23. Researching and report Task 3 • In pairs, you are required to research the following different coaching techniques

  24. Lesson summary • Coaches can make good use of reflective diaries in order to improve their coaching performance • Performance profiles can be used for performers and coaches alike • Coaches are expected to make interventions to improve performance, having identified areas for development • Coaches can condition games to facilitate the teaching of a specific skill or tactic
