In the era of internet and connectivity, collaborative
coaching only makes sense. There is always a possibility that that something
new comes out of collaboration, from taking to other coaches, seeking parents’ feedback, exploring online
resources and getting ideas from players themselves. So, if you’ve been feeling
that you’ve exhausted your tricks to motivate the
team, it’s probably time for collaborative coaching.
Collaborate
with other coaches
Here’s a great way to get in
touch with other coaches. The InstaTeam App shows teams in the vicinity. You
could get in touch with the coaches of these teams and discuss ways to bring
the zing back in tour team. You could also form a group that gets together
monthly or weekly to discuss ideas. You could also collaborate with
other teams and plan seminars, health camps or bring
in some national level athlete for motivational talk. If you have a big group,
you can plan big events together.
Collaborate
with parents and players
While we strictly advise parents to leave the coaching to
the coaches, every once in a while, it’s good to ask for suggestions. This is
indeed a great way to include parents, encourage cooperation, and get some
ideas too.
Internet to
your rescue
There is a sea of resources on the internet that can seek
inspiration from. From learning pro tips to getting the secret of the best
clubs in the world, you can get plenty ideas for
bringing in a new life in your training. You can also
get tips to better technique, ideas for team motivation and activities to keep
team spirited and pepped up through the season.
TV time
together still works
Take some time off practice and make the team sit together
for some TV time. Play inspirational videos of pro
teams, make them learn about the strengths of their favorite players. Allow
them to have a visual taste to success, help them mentally prepare for the
grind and help them understand the commitment and hard work that goes into the game to get success. You can also
show the players a recording of their own game. They will see and understand
what they are doing wrong, what needs to be worked upon and how they can build
upon their personal and the team’s strength. This is a great way to help players understand the
strategy for the game.
