  • The Selection and Role of the Fifth Player
    Vol.1 No. 7 The Selection and Role of the Fifth Player (a subsidiary of TRUE NORTH CURLING INC.) PRESENTS THE COACHING SERIES… “A PANE IN THE GLASS” Foreword by Bill Tschirhart It is a pleasure for True North Coaching to publish an essay by someone who very likely never dreamed he’d be the coach of an Olympic champion. Sometimes the best things in life happen when we least anticipate they might. Such is the case with Toby McDonald. Until the Torino Winter Olympic Games, his most notable curling achievement by far was a Brier title in 1976 as the mate for Jack MacDuff. It is still Newfoundland & Labrador’s only Brier championship but when Brad Gushue needed a coach for his team’s run at the Curling Trials leading to the Torino Winter Olympic Games, Toby was the one the team wanted and a great choice it was! By now, several books have been written about Team Gushue’s Gold Medal performance in Torino and I’m personally pleased that many of the authors have noted the contribution Toby made. All was not blue skies and roses for Team Canada during those Olympic Games and had it not been for the expertise of Toby, the result might have been very different! Toby sent this essay to me several months ago re. the role of the fifth player and how to ultimately select someone for this most misunderstood position. I asked if he might allow me to publish it in the “A Pane in the Glass” series which he graciously has done.

  • Innerfight Gymnastics Class Programming
    By André Houdet INNERFIGHT GYMNASTICS CLASS PROGRAMMING Thank you for downloading the gymnastics program that I have been using for our weekly gymnastics class here at Innerfight over the past 5 months. I’ve found that having a well-structured program has helped my clients improve a lot both because of the context of the program itself, but maybe even more so because I was able to explain them the intention behind the program. I shared the intention of each session and made sure that everyone understood “how” and “why” the block were set up like they were. I’m by no means a former gymnasts or gymnastics specialty coach, but I’m passionate about perfecting and understanding movement which I think is key in order to become a great coach. I’ve tried to gather knowledge from different sources (Podcast with Christopher Summer – Founder of Gymnastics Bodies. Podcast with Carl Paoli – Founder of Free Style Connection), I’ve completed the CF gymnastics course and I’ve been fortunate to be coached by a former Cirque de Solei gymnast, former US national team gymnast and also by a former top UK gymnastic athlete and coach. Below program is just a simple 1 session a week gymnastics program that you can use as inspiration to your own training, clients programming or general class programming. Marco overview: BLOCK 1 (13 WEEKS) ~The goal of this block is to build a strong foundation/base. This will be achieved through static & strict work mainly. The goal of this block is to work towards improving the strict standards of the IF zones sheet.
