Session 2 - Tuesday 17th July - Under 11's
Session - possession
Used some of the warm up drills from the course - also used the switching drill - where 2 players have to switch positions to receive the ball in the box - worked very well - kids loved it
Intervention
Worked well tonight - 0 interventions, didn't stop any of the drills, however gave dicreet individual feedback to 4 individuals during the session. Definite evidence of the kids understanding and actioning the points raised. It becomes easier to communicate the specifics , also able to test understanding by backing the point up with questions
Questioning
Started the session with small group questions relating to what makes a team good at possession - also asked the question what is possession. When each group gave an answer to the question I asked them to demonstrate what they meant - wrked really well. Feel confident understanding is fuller and deeper as a consequence - I asked the kids what is different about my coaching - "You are asking lots more questions" - seems about right to me. It's beginning to get easier
Coach and parents
We are running a session for all our coaches and any interested parents. We will subject them to the blue dot exercise, the 4 corners, how the brain learns, the questioning and the low intervention systems - Looking forward to it - we should get 20 - 30 people there
