Three different coaching techniques and how a coach would them

- Observation analysis
- Fitness assessment
- Simulation


What is Observation analysis?

Observation analysis is a technique used to analyse the effectiveness of an athlete’s
performance. Coaches in any sport are able to simply observe someone/a team play and then
provide them with constructive feedback. Observation analysis is a completely subjective form
of analysis as it is purely based on the coach’s opinions.


How a coach would use this technique:

A good analysis looks at both a player’s strengths and weaknesses. A coach would use this
technique to detect and then correct errors, in order to improve the athlete’s future
performance. The feedback that would follow as a result of this analysis shouldn’t be an
negative attack on a player in questions performance: it’s vital for a coach to discuss what was
positive and what the athlete and then move on to what could be improved. Feedback should be
a motivating tool.

How would this technique help to improve the athlete’s ability?

The sports coach would use the following process in order to use this technique to improve the
athletes:

Observation- In training and competitions

Analysis - Before, during and/or after a practice

Evaluation- Involves interpretation and decision making

Feedback- Which should be appropriate, correct and positive

Planning- Based on the information gained and in line with goals that may have been set for the
performer.


Ultimately, by using observational analysis, a coach can learn the strengths and weaknesses of
individual players/ athletes as well as the entire team. It can give coaches the knowledge
