Week 3

Coaching

As this week would be the start of the coaching competition (on friday), the whole week in class was focussed on being ready to coach when the time occurred. 

We started by looking at and completing the "action plan" and contract as a coach, which can be found in the coaching manual shared via email with you all (also attached below). It is important for you to complete this as a general overview for your time as a coach over the next 2 terms, and it is part of your Task 2 for your coaching assessment.

During the practical lesson on Tuesday, the class was divided up into the different sports, and then completed 2 drills of coaching. They then wrote down which one they thought that they would use as a coach, so the group are sharing their skills and knowledge.

I was so proud of the class as they became coaches. It was obvious when I went out to observe that the players were excited to be involved, and most were respectful and were paying attention to everything that you see. It is such a great experience to do this, teaching you valuable skills which any adult would be proud of having gained. Well done class, and I look forward to watching your progress over the coming weeks and terms.
