๐ญ | A very valuable theory that coaches can use to view coaching practice if they get their heads into it. - โThrow one tennis ball and the person receiving it has a good chance of catching it. Throw five tennis balls and they might not have chance to even catch oneโ.
๐ญ | At risk of going out on a tangent, this may also go some way towards explaining why there was so much push back when @AlexScott first came on screen and provided a better level of work that we are accustomed to expect, people in these roles will have felt threatened 6/6
๐ญ | Our thoughts re: the terminology saga that has flooded this platform recently... Whilst there may be confusion around terms that sometimes causes people (coach to coach, coach to player + others) to effectively talk past each other on what may be the same concepts.. 1/6
๐ญ | Particularly given that a lot of these people played the game professionally. This allows the trend of lazy/poor/surface level punditry and analysis to continue. 5/6
๐ | Going forward we intend to continue providing thought provoking content on the page, combined with new blog posts around a variety of topics releasing on the website. 2/2
๐ | Talent Development by @DCGreyMattersUK & @AineGreyMatters ... A must read for all coaches operating in talent development environments. #SundayShare
