Episode notes

Observing and setting constraints can lead to the emergence of creative and adaptable solutions, which should be celebrated. It is essential to be cautious with constraints to avoid rigid movements and instead focus on enabling solutions. The emphasis should be on celebrating the innovative solutions that arise from the limitations imposed, rather than solely on using constraints for control purposes.

I am joined by Damian Farrow, Alex Lascu, Derek Panchuk and Carl Woods to discuss the article: Sport Practitioners as Sport Ecology Designers: How Ecological Dynamics Has Progressively Changed Perceptions of Skill “Acquisition” in the Sporting Habitat. We discuss: the shift from coach as instructor to coach designer, the challenges of “hands-off” coaching, do coaches need to understanding skill acquisition theory, and the importance of having a consistent purpose across the different disciplines in coaching (via a Department of Methodology).
