I’ve posted about mastery v ego before so in a nutshell it’s: Mastery – locating, finding and completing a pass to the best, usually most open and easy target available. Ego – ignoring the most open and easy target to attempt a pass with a low chance of being completed and that puts our team...

GAME MODELLING – OUR INTERCEPT MARK IN DEFENSIVE 50
Previous Post – Center Bounce Clearance Win New Post – Our Intercept Mark Defensive 50 The player movements/formations that will allow this to occur frequently will be evident in future posts as we reach the end of the loop which starts this new loop (that made sense didn’t it?), but of course it helps immensely...
LEARNING FROM TRAINING
These notes come from this Gaelic football Twitter site, that looks at what we’re actually all aiming for during and from training – learning. There’s so much focus on the “doing” of training but that’s mainly because that’s what coaches know – they know what they want to see and design their activities for that...

NBA on TNT TALKING “CONFIDENCE”
I literally just recorded this off the TV 2mins ago, with the TNT crew off Charles Barkley, Kenny Smith, Shaquille O’ Neal and Ernie Johnson talking about the boost that comes with being named a first-time all-star, and the first game coming off of that which in this case is Jalen Brunson and Tyrone Maxey...
GAME MODELLING – CENTER BOUNCE CLEARANCE LOSS
I first learnt about game models about 5 or 6 years ago via Fergus Connolly, a coach who has had his hands in every sports pie you can imagine, including EPL, NFL and NBA. I believe they are a must-have for ALL coaches but especially local coaches as they are not as resourced as elite...
ELIMINATE DEFENDERS TRAINING ACTIVITY
This training activity is about moving the opposition which then opens up the space they just vacated, for your team to take advantage of. In the AFL you’ll rarely see a player give a handball before forcing the defender to commit to them, freeing up the receiver to take ground once they take possession but it...
