Session Objectives:
By the end of this session participants will be able to:
- Dribble slow and at pace
- Keep head up
- Change direction whilst dribbling
Session Evaluation
In my second session I still wanted to ensure I had the full control and attention of the group at all times so still used the autocratic coaching style.(Horn, 2002) I ensured that I kept the group fully motivated by setting target through out all the dribbling drills. As I was only working on one skill in the session I understood that it would be quit repetetive so I ensured that everybody was busy during the session with out anytime to think and talk to others about social issues. With help of the manager I progressed the higher ability player on to more difficult tasks whilst the weaker player where quit happy at doing the basic drills. I ensured that everybody understood the basics of dribbling with a short question session at the end then evaluated them through out the long match at the end.
One of my players was anxious of there running style and felt he was been socially evaluated (Endler, 1987) by others. I tried to give him positive feed back and will continue to do so over the coming weeks to try and improve his confidence as he is a good skilful player.
All the learning objectives were met but a lot more work will be needed to be done before players properly appreciate the importance of footwork. All session objectives were completed but I do feel over all control could be improved when running with the ball.
