WHOLE – PART - WHOLE Whole Start with a game and observe the technical proficiency of the players. Part Spot it – Freeze it – Fix It (Individual/Group). Isolate the skill and work on it with either individuals or the entire group Whole Continue with the game, added conditions etc as required. Incentivise the use of the skill you have practiced in the game by having such things as skill points etc Games Based Coaching for Technical Proficiency (Structure)
Spot and Fix • All players need specific technical coaching at some time during their careers. • If you coach, then you should be able to ‘spot and fix’ faults in technique. • The secret lies in the phrase ‘Head, Hands, Hurley & Feet for Better Technique’. HEAD…is his/her head up as he/she kicks? This will cause the player to lean back and push the ball further to the right. HANDS…is he/she dropping the ball two-handed, cross-handed or is he/she holding the ball too far from his body? FEET….is his standing foot pointing nowhere near the target? Is he playing the ball off the outside of his/her boot? Presentation title in footer
