Judy Murray Highlights Creativity in Coaching
|
|
In Judy Murray: Harnessing the Digital Transformation, Judy acknowledges that the last months have been stressful and challenging on a number of levels, but that they have also highlighted how adaptable, resourceful and incredibly resilient the coaching family is.
Coaches from a variety of sports have been learning innovative approaches for delivering coaching at home and in confined spaces, not to mention making a colossal effort to get to grips with the plethora of communication platforms out there. It's been a Herculean effort, and Judy Murray is clear that coaches far and wide have risen to the challenge.

New to the ConnectedCoaches Community: Coaching while social distancing - How will it work for you?
|
|
As you would expect, the 'return to play' agenda is dominating coaching discussions.
Coaches have a key role to play in the nation's recovery and we want to use our online community ConnectedCoaches to provoke an important discussion.
|
|
.
|
What practical measures and adaptations have you implemented or are considering implementing - now, during transition and upon a nationwide return to play?
|
|
.
|
How do you create activities where you are two metres apart that aren't boring?
|
|
|
We must ensure that the voices of the creative coaches on the front line are being heard - not just the voices of government & policymakers - and we would really value your thoughts & ideas.
Why not add your voice to the conversation?
