I am a “student of coaching”. I study it. The kind of coaches kids go back to year after year are doing something right. Sometimes what a coach doesn’t say is more important than what he does say. This is a perfect example. Letting the kids work out the details of square contact on their own allows their creativity to sprout, and fosters an appreciation for the game. In this way the coach “lets the game speak”. This level of maturity is rare for a coach. Heck, it’s rarer for a player. Next, a single “drop the shoulder” is all that’s needed to get these kids doing it right. Still, less is more. You can see it working when the kids playfully feign the fencing response after big hits, a subtle, irreverent nod to the cousin sport of Épée where offense and defense intertwine. But coaching is dynamic - match the needs of the moment separates the good from the great. The next clip shows the athletes doing some zone 2 cardio for cooldown/warmup. Recognizing the change-up tempo, the coach instructs: “Good. Good. Good. Good practice. Good practice. Good practice. Good.” Real-time feedback honest makes all the difference. It’s what builds the coach-player relationship. And it’s what makes memories.
