IYCA – Game Play Performance
Dear Coach:
One of the biggest mistakes well intentioned youth sport coaches or trainers make is trying to train their young athletes by modeling what coaches of college or even professional athletes are doing.
They turn each training session into a hard-driving or ‘endless repetitions of one exercise’ type affair.
Not only is this not optimal when coaching those young athletes that are often middle school age, but it’s actually counterproductive and impeding their development.
Let’s take a closer look at what’s actually happening here…
Mental – Young athletes are young CHILDREN. They do not posses the attention span to concentrate on one athletic skill for a prolonged period of time.
Understanding this concept is paramount for coaches, trainers and parents – once a child becomes bored with a movement, they will become frustrated and careless. This will lead to poor execution and incorrect form.
Emotional – Young athletes require constant POSITIVE and CONSTRUCTIVE feedback from there coaches. Pulling a ‘Lombardi’ and chastising young athletes for poor performance, bad behavior or incorrect exercise execution is not conducive to optimal development.
If training feels like punishment, the young athlete will NOT thrive.
Physical – All great players in any sport are great athletes first. You simply cannot become a world-class baseball player, for instance without acquiring superior ATHLETIC skill.
By using the concept of ‘play’, you can turn your training sessions into fun, enjoyable experiences for your young athletes and also optimally develop their athletic skills.
