Needs to be a balance of team & personal evaluation.
DISCOURAGE ATHLETES/COACHES FROM EVALUATING/BLAMING INDIVIDUAL ATHLETES FOR ERRORS ON COURT. There is always something you yourself could have executed better to change the outcome of the error, Mistakes are how we learn!
Prompt athletes to do it themselves at trainings, pre game, during game & post game.
EVALUATING TRAINING:
-Remember skills, process, technique and personal error corrections.
-How do they apply to your favourite position on court?
-How do they apply to you least favourite position on court?
-What was you favourite skill/technique this session
PRE-GAME EVAL-
-Visualisation of application of error corrections
-'Mantra' Description of themself, reinforce a strength & a weakness/inconsistency
IE: i am a Speedy (STRENGH) Ninja (DESCRIPTIVE WORD) who is fast & well timed off the C Pass (PERONAL INCONSISTENCY/WEAKNESS)
DURING GAME:
-sandwhich effect for coach & athletes to use indiviaually & get the performance out of themselves/athlets
POSITIVE- NEGATIVE- POSITIVE
IE: our rentention & utilising of C Passes is great score wise, lets be faster off the whistle on C pass by using well timed prelims off the line to increase our retention %, our technique-placement & decision making has been great from baseline to baseline transition from defence.
POST GAME:
Opposition analysis
-Key players/game plays that we could shut down better.
-What skills/technique will we need to adapt next time we play them to shut that down
