Understanding what an athlete needs to work on and then focusing on mastering each task separately takes time.
Not every athlete can be coached the same way. Some athletes need detailed, extravagant cues, while others respond better to simple, basic instructions.
As coaches we have to be able to adjust our coaching style in the moment. The cue that works for one athlete might completely confuse another.
If we fail to adapt we’re not just affecting that session we can affect the athlete’s development and understanding for a long time.
This isn’t just about giving everyone the same information.
It’s about giving each athlete the right information, at the right time, in the right way.
— Coach Radian Williams
