Part 1. Involving your Players in Developing the Game Plan
Allow the players to dream it, allow the players to build it. This allows them to feel ownership.
Ex Wallaby, current Seawolves assistant coach and IRAA coach Chris Latham enables his players (together for the 1st time), to build and own their game plan.
Chris starts with his players in the classroom visually building their Attack structure.
An excellent approach as players learn in different ways!

Course reviews
Guy McKim — CanadaInteresting way to engage the players in understanding the game especially for less experienced players, ‘tell me what you think’ Also an easy way to share ideas when bring together experienced players, see what they are thinking about during a game. Discuss how to use their abilities.
Jaco Coetzee — USALove this saying for m Chris “Allowing players to be themselves within the structure, has to be a structure that they have come up with”
Tank Lanning — South AfricaLove the use of pool balls on a field marked out in a meeting room … More interaction from players who tend to zone out of done on PowerPoint or even a white board …
Simon Fruen — EnglandWell done, great delivery Chris. In the UK we’re moving to U14 girls and seeing this game plan approach is perfect. I really appreciate the player ownership as this will bring out the players confidence. And if the plan doesn’t work out the players are invested in fixing the play. Exellent.
Geraint Thomas — Great Britain & Northern IrelandThis is great coaching which involves the players from the outset in no pressure environment. Great use of questioning obtaining player feedback and understanding. Love the use of pool balls.
