In the triple jump, the stages are clear: hop, skip, and jump. For the high jump, they are: approach, takeoff, and clearing the bar.
The job of a coach is to support their athlete in jumping the furthest or highest. And while we would like to think that the outcome drives the process, is that what really happens? If we are a coach who feels comfortable coaching the approach but not the takeoff, what happens then?
We might like to think we compete with other coaches, when in truth, we compete with ourselves.
Let’s change the narrative.
Join us at Coach Camp, where we affirm and challenge each other to do better. I hope to see you there. The next event is Saturday, 31st May at Sport Wales, you can get your FREE ticket here.
