Coach Development Series Level 2: Skill Acquisition – Session 1

How athletes acquire skill, coaching techniques and environments to help get the best out of their experiences.

Athlete Development is pleased to announce a 3-session Coach Development Series aimed at coaches who have completed our level 1 programme and/or are coaching at a noice level, beginning Wednesday 25th March at 5:00pm-6:30pm in The Finish Line at AUT Millennium.

These sessions are free, and our AD Coaches want to help novice coaches, across all sports, through this series of coaching sessions designed to support you across three key areas: Skill Aquisition, Thinking 'Outside The Box', and Observation and Collaboration.

Session One: Skill Aquisition

In our first Level 2 Coach Development Series session, we unpack how athletes develop skill most effectively through purposeful, game-representative practice guided by the constraints-led approach, as conceptualized by Karl Newell. In this framework, performance emerges from the dynamic interaction of individual, task, and environmental constraints.

What’s Coming Up

Session Two: Thinking 'Outside The Box'

Wednesday 10 June, 5:00pm to 6:30pm in The Finish Line

Creative thinking and challenges to provide purpose, process and perspective to our athletes learning.

Session Three: Observation and Collaboration

Wednesday 9 September, 5:00pm to 6:30pm in The Finish Line

Collaborative coaching session to challenge and reflect on our coaching styles and techniques.

Please Note: you don’t need to commit to these to attend the first session. Registrations for Sessions Two and Three will open closer to the dates.
