Earlier in the week in part 1, we took a quick look at 3 aspects of coaching that if you can nail them in season 2022,will go a long way to on and off-field sucecess.

They were:

- Game Model

- Messaging

- Language

In part 2 we'll look at another 3 aspects of coaching for you to nail to put you the best position possible for season 2022 and beyond being:

NAIL THESE 6 ASPECTS OF COACHING IN 2022 PART 1

It's a very tough landscape in the loocal/amatuer footy ranks at the moment where in the last month or so I must have seen 50 - 75 vacancies just hedre in Melbourne.

With the uncertainty of the last 2 seasons + the uncertainty of players intentions going forward, the need great coaching at local/amatuer level has never been more critical.

With less cash to be thrown around by heavy hitter clubs, even they will now have to look at internal development of coaches and players, rather then just throwing money at any cracks they find in their footy clubs.

Here are 6 aspects of coaching I suggest you look into as deep as you possible can, to move the dial further along the greatness scale.

In part 1 today I'll discuss:

- Game Model

- Messaging

- Language

Part 2 and another 3 aspects of coaching on Friay.

MELBOURNE GRAND FINAL ANALYSIS

I thought I'd take a quick look at some of the things Melbourne have perfected in season 2021 on their way to the most powerful (is that right word?) Grand Final victory in history.

They don't play a very complicated game the Dees but how they do it is obviously extremely effective after their dominant finals series this season.

I'll quickly highlight aspects of Melbourne's game stlye such as:

• Center Square Formation
• Full Ground Team Defensive Formation
• Utilising Their Rucks at Center Clearances

...all that force the opposition, in this case the Western Bulldogs, into a particular style of play which causes all sorts of issues offensively, and fees their own offense in process.

SYDNEY SWANS GAME STYLE INTRODUCTORY TRAINING DRILL PART 4

                                                 

This final introductory video shows how the Swans build their offensive lanes via their player, and thus ball movement, which also builds their defense at the same time.

The player lanes was probably the real magic in the Swans offense in season 2021 as it keeps all 22 players in the play for as long as possible and if you are patient enough, you'll discover outnumber situations which creates overlap and pretty much whatever inside 50 kick you want, long or short, which is also an affordance offered to the Swans via the player lanes up the ground.

It really is a thorough game style that is pretty simple in it's approach and doesn't really differ too much from offense to defense where once again, I strongly believe this can be implemented in local/amateur footy...

SYDNEY SWANS GAME STYLE INTRODUCTORY TRAINING DRILL PART 3

                                            

Once again we move towards more game representation when introducing this Sydney Swans game style to a new team.

In this video we introduce defenders into the mix which will change how the activity looks but it shouldn't change the processes and principles of play that the players follow, and go through, during the activity.

Be sure to take note when players move back default patterns of play, especially with this style being brand new to everyone - show some leniency but also be strong in that it's probably what you don't want, or need to happen, for this style of play to work, and if possible show them why...

SYDNEY SWANS GAME STYLE INTRODUCTORY TRAINING DRILL PART 2

                                                    

Yesterday's video outlined what I would use as.a starting point for teaching the Sydney Swans game style at local level.

Today I progress the same training activity, layering towards something more representative of the game but you can't start at the finish or you'll find major gaps in learning and implementation on game day, where much higher psychological stress can have a huge affect on detecting/processing information an thus decision making.

Isolate then integrate...

SYDNEY SWANS GAME STYLE INTRODUCTORY TRAINING DRILL PART 1

                                                

I've been banging on about the Sydney Swans game style introduced in season 2021 for a while now and for good reason, it took us from 16th spot to 6th and 5 wins to 15 with a team full of youngsters, albeit very talented ones.

It builds a player an thus ball movement pattern unlike what any other AFL team is using and is very hard to efend in the way it develop outnumber situations to work the ball up the ground, but not at any break neck speed decreasing turnover risk.

I also strongly believe that this can be utilised extensively, if not exclusively, at local levels of football and if AFL teams find it hard to defend, imagine what it could do to local teams!

For the next 4 days I'll post 1 video looking at what would be my first step in introducing this concept at training and if I coach again in 2022, I definitely will be.

I've also got 2 more Sydney games from season 2021 that I've analysed that I might put in a Sydney Swans Game Plan Bundle and package up if anyone is interested in going all in on this for 2022...
