V V 10 THE AMATEUR FOOTBALLER 2008 THE AMATEUR FOOTBALLER 2008 11 A.F.C. V.A.F.A. COACHES’AFCA/VAFA CLIPBOARD “Your Coaches’ Association” MATCHING EXPERIENCE

Adrian Connolly ~ Level 2 – De La Salle Assistant Coach I read with great interest the other week that Neil Craig has now included as part of his training regime half time breaks and inter-change moves. A little left of centre one would seem, but on closer inspection a very important experience to teach and learn. Should we not be training our players under game conditions so as they replicate certain behaviors when under game stress? Should this also involve every aspect of a game? The article got me to think about certain players and how they react under certain circumstances. One of those areas is players who come off the bench on numerous occasions and we look for to have an impact immediately on a game. Most clubs with our bigger bench often will have a player we are developing or is a fix it type. We expect that our player be warmed up and mentally alert to go once he is called upon. How many times does that player come on and take 5 to 10 minutes to get into the tempo of the game? So why not train the experience? In your training planning try to set it into 4 parts that mimic the quarters. While each part is going pick players to come off and walk the boundary and have a drink. Tell them to sit down on a chair and observe 3 things to communicate with the players when they get back in. If possible try to get your runner to do this at training. Like in a match get him to get another nominated player and change as they would in a game and use the interchange gates. Give the player some instructions before he goes on and get him to concentrate on getting a good clean possession the next opportunity. If he is used in a tagging role, get him to find a particular player out on the ground. If you are having poor starts to games, or quarters, practice those at training. Most of these aspects are mental application, but we can get players to go through pre game and mid game strategies to focus them in on behaviors that are positive and eliminate those that are negative. Maybe your players are spending too much time sitting and not enough moving. You can explain the next drill to them and give the group some focus points as per game day. Get them to run out together, organise a short warm up at one end and move out to your full ground drill as if they are starting a game. Then expect your players to start the drill as if the start of a game or quarter. Some may argue about warm ups, but why not do your warm up as you would do before a game. Do the same drills and warm up exercises, and if you have time try to do exactly as you would on a Saturday, by doing a short warm up in and out of the rooms with a last minute address to focus players on the process needed for that night. Studies would show that by the time we get senior players into a club, the skill level they have is entrenched and only a lot of time will see changes. Yes we can try to refine the skill and maximize its quality. That is why it is important then to give players as many match day experiences in training so as they can execute their skills in stressful situations, and develop quicker decision making skills that will allow them to maximize the most of the ability they have. Developing drills that allow players to make their own decisions are vital in the learning process. Coaches need to set up drills where players can make decisions that reflect your game structure and plan. The best way is to put in defensive pressure, and to make sure that the experience is positive in moving the ball in your style. This may mean adding 2 players to provide pressure at certain parts in a drill, and therefore make a player decide which option he needs to use. It will also make the ball receiver think more about their best position to receive the next possession and so on. This is not something that you would do every night at training and you could just focus on one specific area. Players and coaches are creatures of habits and this process can help us evaluate what we are doing and to find trigger points that will allow your team to be ready to perform at the maximum at each starting point of a game.
