There was a discussion about playing a game using limited space and equipment. The suggestion was to use small courts and lightweight balls to make it easier. The idea was to provide the right equipment to help kids learn and develop skills, just like how we learned when we were young.
Ian Renshaw is back and he has a new book out that he wrote with Danny Newcombe, Keith Davids and Will Roberts. The book (link below) is designed to introduce coaches to the concepts, principles and language of the Constraints Led Approach and offers practical examples of how the approach can be used to support athlete development.
In this conversation we delve into some of these principles including:
- The difference between representative task design and variability
- The importance of information in the environment and the folly of removing this information
- How to design practices to feel like the real thing
- An exploration of 'affordance led coaching'
I hope you enjoy
