Archive: Safe Uncertainty with Rick Shuttleworth

Episode #241 of The Coaches Network Podcast.

There's been a lot of exciting work on going behind the scenes, and as we approach 250 episode of The Coaches Network Podcast, and we've been growing week after week in our listenership, we thought I'd be a great time highlight some of the great guests we've had over the past 2 years. So over the next few weeks we'll be releasing re-run's of some our top episodes, alongside continuing to bring some great new content and episodes.

This weeks episode is one from the archives, a discussion with Rick Shuttleworth. Rick has a diverse experience supporting performance development coaching, athlete and team dynamics, and sport development and education in Europe and Australasia. He contributed to several successful Olympic sports campaignes at the Australian Institute of Sport (Australian Sports Commission) as Skills Acquisition Specialist spanning both Beijing and London Games. It involved supporting Olympic coaches and athletes, World Cup sports, Super Rugby Franchises, National Rugby League, Football Federation Australia, Australian Rules Clubs and number of National Sport Organisations.

Rick joins CoachYas to discuss how to create a safe learning environment for athletes to thrive in. We discuss the importance and the role of being allowed to make mistakes plays in development at all levels, and how to give your athletes more ownership over their learning. This is a great one for coaches battling with the debate on balance player vs coach led environments. Enjoy!
