Download or read book Teaching Methods of a Successful College Soccer Coach written by Tommy Crabill and published by . This book was released on 2014 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: With the intention of extending coaching behavior science which examined the instructional behavior of expert coaches, a successful NCAA Division III collegiate soccer coach was systematically observed using the Arizona State University Observational Instrument (Lacy & Darst, 1984). Specifically, during the 2011-12 soccer season, a trained observer attended five practices in which Dr. Jay Martin instructed his athletes. During the practices Dr. Martin wore a wireless microphone and was filmed to allow for event recording. Subsequent to the completion of the data collection, the results of the study were categorized into 6 tables; one to display the total amount of behaviors across all five practices, and 5 separate tables, one for each practice. A total of 2,609 coaching behaviors were recorded. The behavior Dr. Martin demonstrated most frequently was instruction (35.1%, n = 916). Furthermore, it was found that 20.9% (n = 545) of Dr. Martin's coaching behaviors included praise. Additionally, Dr. Martin's behaviors were described and analyzed to determine if he utilized a unique pattern of behaviors during practice. Data were divided into 6 tables; Characterized by the use of a player's name, it was discovered that 36.9% (n = 964) of Dr. Martin's coaching behaviors were directed toward individuals and therefore 62.1% (n=1,645) were directed toward the team or groups of players. Similar to the study conducted which observed coach John Wooden (Tharp & Gallimore, 1976), participating coach, Dr. Jay Martin of Ohio Wesleyan University, won the NCAA Division III National Championship. Future researchers should break down each category through the use of a dual coding system provided by utilization of name. Another element of coaching behaviors that researchers should investigate is how often expert college soccer coaches engage in tactical instruction or technical instruction. Understanding the amount of technical and tactical instruction expert coaches use would provide insight into the differences or similarities between how basketball coaches and soccer coaches instruct their sport.
Download or read book The Coach s Guide to Teaching written by Doug Lemov and published by Hachette UK. This book was released on 2020-12-07 with total page 494 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The mark of a great coach is a constant desire to learn and grow. A hunger to use whatever can make them better. The best-selling author of Teach Like a Champion and Reading Reconsidered brings his considerable knowledge about the science of classroom teaching to the sports coaching world to create championship caliber coaches on the court and field. What great classroom teachers do is relevant to coaches in profound ways. After all, coaches are at their core teachers. Lemov knows that coaches face many of the same challenges found in the classroom, so the science of learning applies equally to them. Unfortunately, coaches and organizations have a mixed level of understanding of the research and study of the science of learning. Sometimes coaches and organizations build their teaching on myths and platitudes more than science. Sometimes there isn’t any science applied at all. While there are thousands of books and websites a coach can consult to better understand technical and tactical aspects of the game, there is nothing for a coach to consult that explicitly examines the teaching problems on the field, the court, the rink, and the diamond. Until now. Intended to offer lessons and guidance that are applicable to coaches of any sporting endeavor including everyone from parent volunteers to professional coaches and private trainers, Lemov brings the powerful science of learning to the arena of sports coaching to create the next generation of championship caliber coaches.
