We had a great conversation about the influences that have driven Anthony especially the legendary footballer Johan Cruyyf the pioneer of TOTAL football
The mystique of how he coached
One of his quotes:
‘There is no higher praise than being acclaimed for your style’
- It is not ONLY about the result but the WAY the result is achieved
- Understanding how important it is to EXPRESS your capabilities
- The variability of outcomes and why we shouldn’t attach everything to them
- What the vast majority of golfers REALLY want to achieve
- Why it is SO important to really understand a player’s UNIQUE desire
- Why we should hold back our ASSUMPTIONS
- How your coaching philosophy should EVOLVE
- Beginning with the SHOT and working from there
- Becoming obsessed with the BALL FLIGHT
- When to dive into technique and when NOT
- Is your intervention actually improving IMPACT?
- John Jacobs ‘Golf is what the BALL does’
- Spending more time observing players ON the COURSE
- Why you shouldn’t have to ‘get worse to get better”
A great session with an extremely knowledgeable coach who has immersed himself in the development of his craft
