Planning is a vital part of the coaching process, and the capacity to progress from planning the session to planning for a multi-year cycle is a mark of the developing expertise of the coach (Lyle, 2002).
The planning workshops aim to provide coaches of all levels with the knowledge and skills to design and implement an effective training programme in their coaching practice. Through the workshops we examine the various planning levels required to help the athletes ‘perform when it counts’. Use the links on the left of the page to navigate the four pages in this section, which are summarised below.
