Since I didn’t put out a podcast last week I thought it would be a good time to do a survey that I’ve been considering for a while. I appreciate everyone who took the time to fill it out.
There were a number of things that I’ve learned from it already. Over 80% of coaches who responded want more training sessions. The recent episodes have included more commentary than actual training sessions but there’s been a lot going on to talk about.
I asked what type of sessions or topics you wanted to hear more of and there was a wide range from more technical sessions to sessions that are focused on players U15 and up.
When I asked who you wanted to hear from. Just as many coaches want to hear from youth coaches as professional coaches. I have a number of interviews planned for the next few weeks with youth coaches that have a slightly different take the best way to develop players.
If you didn’t have a chance to complete the survey here’s the link. I’ll leave it active through this week if you’d like help improve the podcast.
This week I want to review the tournament I attended with my teams over Memorial Day weekend. I discuss the benefits of traveling with your team, what you should look for when deciding which tournament to attend as well as the specific things I learned from this trip and how it will impact my coaching going forward.
Rather than retype everything I talked about on the show I’m having the episode transcribed. As soon as it’s completed I’ll post a link to the show notes below.
