“You Choose”
Each team selects:
🔹2 players from the other team whose goals count zero
🔸2 players from the other team whose goals count 2x
Outmaneuvering the opponent before the whistle blows is a game of chess, and not to be taken lightly.♟️

Restrictions vs Incentives
❌ You MUST complete 5 passes before progressing to the final 1/3!
✅ Every 5 passes you make before progressing to the final 1/3 adds a point!

Anti-fragility!
When a new player in our program is asked to play the 9, and replies, “I can’t do that, I’m a defender. I’ve never played anything else!” That’s a concern.
Players adept at multiple positions are more resilient and have greater anti-fragility in their positions.

If we can view ‘skill’ as a relationship, and “skillfullness” as the adeptness of managing that ever evolving relationship instead of as just an outcome, how much more growth and enjoyment could exist??
The parallels between the classroom and sports field I feel are vast.
The word 'learning' in school is a readherring.
Learning is not an outcome.
It's a process and a way of being.
The learning sciences semantics of recall, retrieval, test scores are not learning.
They are a small part of the process at best.

Me: “That’s cool that you want to be a ref during recess.”
My kid: “And if they don’t listen to me I’ll pick them up and carry them off the field.”
Me: “Not sure that’s the best idea.”

“Control over Context”
Using a Coach centered pedagogical framework for eliciting specific “correct” outcomes can limit player exploration opportunities.
Highly recommend this article by
@markstkhlm
,
@JimiVaughan
and co.
Intentions to challenge coach educators' socially and culturally constructed beliefs were not helped by the promotion of artificial task constraints in some task designs to limit unpredictability (control over context).

Here’s a short sequence of the JV girls building out of the back. Still a work in progress, but these young ladies have been working so hard. Every day they play to challenge one another, to have fun, and to be the best players they can.

Very sad to see the season come to an end. These players always expect the best of themselves, they lift each other up, and are

Reminds me of the analogy that Coaching is like Gardening: A gardener doesn’t make a tomato, they create conditions that will help the tomato grow.
A coach doesn’t make a good player, they try to create conditions for good players to thrive.
Imo I’ve never gotten a coaching resource that is good enough on it’s own. When you combine them, and create a season plan based on what fits your style there is some real value in many.
My season plan includes tovo/apfc/phase of play/ and things I’ve done for years.
