Listen "#42 The Games-Based Model: What It Is & Why We Use It (Part 1)"
Episode Synopsis
A few years ago we completely changed the way we coach at our football sessions.
We'd previously had a big part of our sessions made up of individual ball-mastery and 'skills' work.
In this episode we discuss:
What is a games-based approach to football coaching
What are 'constraints' and how we use them to make sure our players learn and improve for football
Why we stopped SAQ at our sessions
How to really coach decision-making
Why aren't all coaches using this method?
The difference between learning and performing
...and loads more.
Let us know what you think and any questions you have.
