The FA\u2019s Professional Coach Development Team has developed an integrated coaching strategy and that means, in practice, a collaborative approach, involving the game\u2019s stakeholders in England, where the aim is \u2018to continue to develop the culture of development in English football\u2019. That calls for a shared purpose and an understanding of each other\u2019s roles and responsibilities so that coach development pathways can be more streamlined, efficient and effective. This involves a range of qualifications and CPD opportunities, but it also means a club-led approach, facilitated by the FA as a national governing body.<\/p>\n<p>2. Any chance you get to chat to other coaches about something then the whole essence of that topic gets solidified in your brain, whether it feeds into your practices or other programmes. Course materials, experiences, resources, ideas are only good if they\u2019re translated into real life. That comes alive with how an FA member of staff might be able to support you in your circumstances, with your group, on your training night, what you\u2019re trying to get better at \u2013 there\u2019s a real, genuine transfer of theory to practice.<\/p>\n<p>3. The FA believes in reality-based learning, with 70% of learning done on the job. Coaches need to recognise what\u2019s going well, what\u2019s not going well, how work is going, how they\u2019re being most effective and impactful. The next 20% comes from peer to peer interaction, when share your experience and reflections of your real work in situ or through support visits throughout the year. It\u2019s a huge commitment and you need a lot of staff to be able to do that effectively. The final 10%, which is also crucial, is what a coach might learn in the classroom. You need people to be relaxed, comfortable in sharing their insights and their experiences in a supportive environment so that you can get into the nuances of what they do.<\/p>\n<hr \/>\n<p><strong>Thinking Points<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>1. Sport has evolved to a point where there is a lot more focus on individualisation. It\u2019s becoming more important to educate future coaches on how to find the balance between the person and the wider team.<\/p>\n<p>2. Are you creating opportunities for your coaches to get out of their own bubble and coach in different sports and diverse environments? It can be a useful exercise to expand their skillsets and impact on how they coach.<\/p>\n<p>3. Coaching is coaching and you can introduce technology but coaching is a human interaction and that\u2019s what you have to be most skilled at.<\/p>\n<p>4. Coach development practices need to span your pathway to ensure there is consistency in approach and language.<\/p>\n<p>5. Do you have a professional standard for coaching framework within your organisation? Your coach development thinking should be aligned around these professional standards for coaching.<\/p>\n<hr \/>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<\/p>\n                                <\/div>\n                            \n                            \n                            \n                                                    <\/div>\n                                        <div class=\"col visibly-hidden col--flex-align-right\">\n                                            <\/div>\n                <\/div>\n            <\/div>\n        <\/div>\n        <\/section>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"","protected":false},"featured_media":2439,"menu_order":0,"template":"","categories":[22,33],"pathway":[],"topic":[],"sport":[],"class_list":["post-2438","vlog","type-vlog","status-publish","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-coaching-development-performance","category-summit-session"],"acf":[],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v26.6 -
