  • Tactical > Playing Structures & Concept decision making skills

  • Performance Outcomes = @ training - Domestic - State - National - International competition

  • Review & Reflect - ongoing examination and adjustments


THE NEED FOR CONTINUOUS IMPROVEMENT

  • As a coach if your commitment to new ideas - moving forward, improvement and innovation - is not greater than the ability of other teams to analyse, implement and counter what you are doing now, then you are vulnerable.

  • High performance reviews post major events and post domestic championships.

  • Direction - what do you the Head Coach (ATHLETE / STUDENT) need to bring to the program thats going to make a positive difference as we go forward?

  • OR - WHAT CAN I IMPLEMENT NOW - to make a big change?


WHAT IS SUCCESS BASED ON? PERFORMANCE BASED OUTCOMES

  • Performing consistently at the highest levels

  • Maintaining excellence in technique & decision making skills during periods of fatigue and pressure

  • Can’t take your eye off the process. Allows you to be proactive not reactive
