Talking Points

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

EP146: The Future of Coaching with Matt Bowers
Q: What are some trade-offs of early specialization versus a more diverse sporting experience?
While early specialization might show immediate advantages, research indicates that a diverse sporting experience raises an athlete's long-term potential.
EP146: The Future of Coaching with Matt Bowers
Q: When you think about maximizing a young player's potential, what are some practical habits coaches can instill?
Coaches should bridge the gap between desired outcomes and what is delivered to young athletes by nurturing their long-term potential and maintaining a joyful environment.
EP145: Coaching and Curiosity with Jon Yu
Q: How do we address the difference between a pro's routine and a youth player's motor learning process?
Form shooting doesn't effectively translate to game scenarios, and youth players should focus on dynamic shooting rather than rigid mechanics.
EP145: Coaching and Curiosity with Jon Yu
Q: How do we explain the difference between technique and skill to coaches wedded to this traditional view?
Skill shows up in the game. Technique changes when there's someone trying to stop you, and we should be evaluating our players based on their performance in the game environment.
EP145: Coaching and Curiosity with Jon Yu
Q: How do we respond to coaches who believe you must master the movement on air before applying it against the defender?
Everything that happens on air, you want it to happen in a game. So let's just put it in a game or put it in some sort of constrained defender.
