In today’s show we provide an insight about how a coach and a player can evolve by taking ACTION

Instead of just keep repeating the same old patterns and habits

 

What are you going to DO that will make a difference?

What will you do with the information in this podcast?

 

We discuss today with Noel how he went from being a very player to an outstanding coach

To go from shooting in the SIXTIES in practice to the horror of taking NINETY in a tournament that mattered.

Can you imagine how that felt for him?

 

How could performance vary so wildly?

 

What was going on?

How sports psychology may have not provided the benefit to many players that it should

The role of bio mechanics and what it can and can’t do for your game
