Increasing Coaching Productivity
Explore the techniques and skills that will allow you as a coach to get more out of your athletes in a competitive environment. Increasing productivity is not a function of simply forcing athletes to do more – there is a secret sauce!
[/GDC_column]
[GDC_column size=”third”]
Improving Coaching Efficiency
This is really the key to winning! Being able to get more done in the same amount of time with a smaller learning curve for the athletes simply results in more competitive success!

Implementing Non-Negotiable Traits
Making a public statement about the non-negotiable traits for your program will elevate performance immediately. It sets the expectations from the outset and it eliminates any perception of unfair treatment of athletes!
[/GDC_column]
[GDC_column size=”third”]
Developing Your Core Fundamentals
This is a step that the vast majority of coaches skip due to being former athletes and thinking they know all the technique they need to know. This is about what technique is taught at what age & stage. This provides entry and exit skills at every level you deal with.

Creating :60 Lessons
The athletes that we coach today have the shortest attention span in the history of sport! Instead of trying to make them do something they CAN’T – learn to build technique and tactic sessions that fit their learning style! You will see IMMEDIATE improvement in practice pace, conditioning, technique acquisition and competitive output!

Creating :07 Terms
These are the Golden Nuggets of coaching! Once you have your :07 Terms you will see the advancement of your program take off like a rocket! These are the cue & trigger words that you coach in practice to provide for smooth & understandable communication in competition! These terms work in conjunction with your :60 Lessons
[/GDC_column]
[GDC_column size=”third”]
Practice Organization
As soon as you have your :60 Lessons and your :07 Terms the next step is to dial in your practice plans. You should write out a practice plan for everyday using a system of progressive techniques that build on each other! This will also become an evaluation tool!
[/GDC_column]

Understanding & Defeating Cognitive Bias
To me this is the difference between being a State Championship program and a losing program! To many coaches simply refuse to see that their reality is in their record! If you can understand cognitive bias and be on the lookout to eliminate it from your program – the sky’s the limit!

The Learning Culture
The culture of sports has been Authoritarian for so long the idea of everyone contributing (yes even the athletes) ideas and solutions is almost taboo. That is exactly how you empower athletes and coaches and turn a program around or keep it on top!
[/GDC_column]
[GDC_column size=”third”]
What Is A Good Sport Parent
As much as we would like to think that being a sport parent is no different that being a regular parent – it isn’t. It’s more emotional and often more personal if you coach your own child. There is clear research about what parents should be doing to help their athlete reach their full potential!
[/GDC_column]
[GDC_column size=”third”]
Are You Qualified To Ask Those Questions?
Parents often question their athletes coach regarding play time, position or discipline. Sometimes parents even dive into questioning the X’s & O’s. The real question is “Are You Qualified to Ask Those Questions?” Regardless of the answer to that question – should you?
[/GDC_column]

[GDC_column size=”third”]
Is The Coach Qualified?
There is a big misunderstanding nationally about what credentials and qualifications a coach is required to have versus what a coach potentially should have when they accept a coaching position. You will be surprised at what this module will teach you!
[/GDC_column]
[GDC_column size=”third”]
Athlete Ownership Matters
This may be the most important module on the membership site! The research on the importance of the athlete owning the sports experience and doing what we call “driving the train” can not be overstated enough! This module should change everything!
[/GDC_column]
[GDC_column size=”third”]
Understanding The Play Time Issue
This is one of the hardest topics to cover because a lot of people need to do a lot of self-reflection and evaluation. Play time is a big issue but the reality is it isn’t the problem! The problem is much deeper and it is only going to improved through education and awareness!

Know Your Role
In today’s society there are a vast number of reasons that parents and coaches step outside the role that they should be fulfilling. Understanding exactly what your role is and executing that with passion and intensity will do far more for your athlete(s) than anything else you can think of!
[/GDC_column]
[GDC_column size=”third”]
What Happens At Home
I don’t think anyone would disagree that extra reps are one of the keys to longterm success as an athlete. The big challenge is where should the athlete get them and who should be in charge of this process – you might be surprised!
[/GDC_column]
[GDC_column size=”third”]
Fit over Fame & Fortune
For most athletes where they play in high school is set by where they live and there is not any options. However, there are many options in every sport leading up to and even after high school that the choice of who to play for is in your hands. This decision is more important than you might know!

To Specialize or Not Specialize
There is some very specific research on this topic that may surprise you! The concept of specialization is not just a hot topic for coaches of non-major sports but also for the health and safety of the athlete – and not just physical health! This is a great module!

The Menu Burger Syndrome!
Be careful how you make your decisions on where you are going to play! regardless of whether it is a club team or a college – what the burger looks like on the menu is not always how it looks when it gets to the table!
