NEW MEMBERSHIP: TRAINING SCENARIOS FROM ACTUAL GAME SITUATIONS - PLAY SWITCH #1

I'm sure you all noticed film review post after film review post during the 2022 AFLW season, resulting in over 800 individual clips from the 100 videos taken from each of the 68 games from round 1 to the Grand Final.

With all this film reviewing resulting in a form of data collection, once you have data (or in this case vision), then the next step is to use it in a way that can enhance your individual and team performance on game day when it counts.

That's exactly what I intend to do.

The posts in this new membership will focus on a single game moment at a specific ground location, accompanied by the actual game vision with my commentary on what happened and what could/should have happened.

That will be followed up with a training scenario laid out for coaches to implement this very game situation but with a few guidelines such as telling your players where the ball will start from, where all players will start and the aim of where to get the ball to. 

Initially you might hold off telling them the exact play, in this case a switch of play out of defense, because you want players to learn to recognise patterns of play and the formations that provide individual and team affordances that they can take advantage of, of which I'll explain in a little more detail in the training scenario video.

I've compiled about 130 different scenarios that can be replicated at training out of those 800 clips so if you're actually serious about your coaching, and the improvement of the players you coach, than this will be huge for you and your players - every player deserves good coaching!

OK, Let's give this a crack and this scenario is free to view.

GAME MOMENT - St Kilda Play Switch Off a Stoppage Kick

PREVIOUS GAME MOMENT - Ball Has Entered Defensive 50 from the Same Side

GROUND LOCATION - Right Back Pocket/Half Back Flank Boundary

TRAINING SCENARIO VIDEO - 

As stated in the video, don't give all the information and solutions away all at once. Have a few goes and see what solutions your players are steering towards and work off of that - the art of coaching.

As the coach, and from the video above, you have a fair idea of what solutions can be used within this problem/scenario so use strategic questions with your players to guide them to the "preferred" solutions but keep an open mind that there are many solutions to a single problem and none of them are incorrect.

Have a crack at this and let me know how it goes for you at training, and more importantly game day, which may take multiple weeks for it to show up, making patience the absolute key here.
