Welcome to the third season of The Get Down Podcast. This episode focuses on the critical concept of Session Flow for coaches, emphasising its impact on the quality of coaching.
In the episode, I’ll break down strategies for different age cohorts in the high school development setting, specifically for years 7-8 (12-14 years), years 9-10 (14-16 years), and years 11-12 (16-18 years).
Key points include maintaining high engagement with minimal distractions for younger students, fostering greater independence and leadership in older students, and promoting autonomy and individualised programming for the oldest cohort.
Tune in to enhance your coaching sessions and ensure both engagement and enjoyment.
