26/01/10 - First Student Led Coaching Session

We participated in four student led coaching sessions as a part of the assignment 2 assessment.

We did Golf with Steve and Anton, Football, Football and Rugby.

In general the coaching was good there were some points to be learned though.

What went well?
I learned some coaching points

What would I do differently?
Introduce myself and Denzil.
Talk about over training and injury.
Talk about health and safety.
Talk about the session content and time - 20 mins is not too long.
Cool downs should be cool downs.
For football - think about football specific movement.
warm up move backwards and forwards
Timing
note cards
encourage communication
bibs for team distinction

What did I learn?
It was hard work for the oldies
They grade you on the spot.

What still puzzles me?
