Five Step Planning Model
| Step |
Description |
Overview |
| 1 |
Pre-Analysis |
Prior to the commencement of training, each team manager will be sent a link to complete an initial team analysis form. This information is used by the trainer to get a better understanding of the teams needs and demands prior to the start of the program. |
| 2 |
Development Plan |
Based on the content of the analysis form and the outcomes of the first session, the trainer creates an online training plan for the duration of the season. The plan details the amount of time that will be spent in each area. Training plans are distributed. |
| 3 |
Individual Session Plans |
Building from the development plan, an individual session plan is created by the trainer for each session delivered. The individual session plan is linked to the seasonal development plan and provides a breakdown of the session content. At the start of each session the trainer will provide the parent coach with a carbon copy of the session plan. |
| 4 |
Game Analysis |
Throughout the season, the trainer attends games to evaluate how the team is performing in game situations. Following attendance at each game the trainer will post a report to the parent coach’s online account. |
| 5 |
End-of-Season Report |
At the end of the training program, the trainer completes an online end of season report that reviews the positives and challenges from the past season as well as the recommended next steps in the team’s development. |
