The model helps coaches to respond to stressful situations by changing their thoughts and feelings.

Managing Stress

One way to change how you feel and act in response to stressful situations is to change your thoughts about the situation.
If you see a mistake made by a player as a possibility, you can turn it into a learning opportunity.
If you see a mistake made by a player as a problem, you may become emotional and reactive.

Netball Australia Coaching Blueprint

Player-Centered Coaching

The key focus of player-centered coaching is on the development of the player, rather than on winning.
High performing coaches should be aware of the player's thoughts, feelings, and actions.
The goal of high performing coaches is to help players develop autonomy, self-awareness, and self-regulation.
