How to Get the Most from This Course

TLDR
This course isn’t designed to be read once and shelved. It’s a resource to work with, return to, and build from. Work through it in order because each section builds on what came before. Revisit sections often because you won’t retain everything first time, just like your players.
Think like a teacher, not a technician. It’s about coaching in a way that helps players understand and apply what they’re learning. Apply what you learn one layer at a time, don’t overhaul everything at once.
Use the community to ask questions, share challenges, and post wins. Remember that success isn’t about running the ‘perfect session’. It’s about building clarity, helping players see the game more clearly, and helping them stay in the game longer.
If you approach the course with curiosity, focus, and a willingness to learn from experience, you’ll get everything you need from it.
Introduction
This course isn’t designed to be read once and shelved. It’s a resource to work with, return to, and build from. You’ll get the most value when you treat it the same way you’d want your players to treat their development, with consistency, reflection, and repetition.
Here’s how to approach it:
1. Work Through It in Order
The course is structured intentionally. Each section builds on what came before it. Jumping ahead is tempting, but to really understand how to develop players stage by stage, take your time and move through it in sequence.
2. Revisit Sections Often
Just like your players, you won’t retain everything on the first go, and you’re not supposed to. Come back to key topics as you coach. Read a section before a session. Retrieval makes learning stick.
3. Think Like a Teacher, Not a Technician
This isn’t about running better drills. It’s about coaching in a way that helps players understand and apply what they’re learning. Ask yourself:
- What is this player learning in this moment?
- How does this link to what came before or what’s coming next?
4. Apply What You Learn, One Layer at a Time
Don’t overhaul everything at once. Start by applying one new idea per session, maybe it’s how you structure a warm-up, or how you ask questions in an SSG. Layer your learning the same way players layer theirs.
5. Use the Community
Ask questions. Share challenges. Post wins. You’ll learn more by engaging with other coaches than you will trying to figure everything out alone. This isn’t just a course, it’s a coaching community that’s here to support your development too.
6. Remember What Success Looks Like
It’s not about running the ‘perfect session’. It’s about building clarity. Helping players see the game more clearly. Helping them stay in the game longer. Success is a confident player who understands what they’re doing and why.
Let’s Begin
If you approach the course the same way you want your players to approach their development, with curiosity, focus, and a willingness to learn from experience, you’ll get everything you need from it.
Let’s get started.
