This week’s guest is Mike Rogers
Mike is currently the assistant coach at the recently crowned MLR champions the New England Free Jacks and the head coach of Manawatu Turbos in the NewZealand NPC competition, he is also the founder of Inside Running Academy in New Zealand.
Mike also hosts the Coach Learning Series.
Mike talks about learning from failure and allowing players to fail during training to improve.
We spoke about being involved in the drills during training so that you can provide immediate feedback where necessary.
We talked about how to have those difficult conversations with players and how to give different types of feedback.
He gave some tips around coaching defence and helping your players read the pictures they see in defence.
We also had a chat about whether we are getting the best benefit out of our pregame warmup.
