💭 | Why coaches should STOP using the word ‘talent’ and START using the word ‘ability’. Our #TuesdayThoughts
🚨 | Sure this will be a must listen for all coaches. Two guys who hold and present a diplomatic, pragmatic view of coaching in contrast with the positional ideologues we often find on here...
A snippet from this week's episode of The Sport Psych Show with Sport Coaching lecturer at Loughborough University, Dr Ed Cope @EdCope1 and Professor of Coaching and Pedagogy at Loughborough University, Prof Chris Cushion @CoachC1.

💭 | A very valuable theory that coaches can use to view coaching practice if they get their heads into it. - “Throw one tennis ball and the person receiving it has a good chance of catching it. Throw five tennis balls and they might not have chance to even catch one”.
💭 | Our thoughts re: the terminology saga that has flooded this platform recently... Whilst there may be confusion around terms that sometimes causes people (coach to coach, coach to player + others) to effectively talk past each other on what may be the same concepts.. 1/6
💭 | Particularly given that a lot of these people played the game professionally. This allows the trend of lazy/poor/surface level punditry and analysis to continue. 5/6
💭 | At risk of going out on a tangent, this may also go some way towards explaining why there was so much push back when @AlexScott first came on screen and provided a better level of work that we are accustomed to expect, people in these roles will have felt threatened 6/6
