Delivered by: Piotr Haluch - Graduate Teaching Assistant and PhD Student at Leeds Trinity University
Piotr is a performance coach with a strong knowledge and understanding of player development. During his career, he has worked at Burnley FC and Huddersfield Town in both coaching and performance roles. Piotr is passionate about coaching programmes and has held internships at clubs such as Real Madrid, Valencia CF, and AC Milan developing his knowledge of training methodologies. Piotr is currently working on a project with S.L. Benfica looking at coaching principles to enhance players' learning and cognitive development.
This theory/practical session will look at position and area specific cognitive demands that players may face in match situations. Piotr will discuss how coaches can monitor cognitive loads in relation to players' position and area of the field they are operating in. Coaches attending the session will discuss how training tasks and activities carried out with varying levels of complexity may equip players with knowledge and understanding of how, when and why to perform specific skills. Significant attention will be given to the development of skills that are both durable (remaining accessible across periods) and flexible (being accessible in the various contexts), decision making, and development of players' 'own way'. The overall objective of the session will be to enhance coaches' understanding of pedagogical competencies such as task design, feedback, positive reinforcement, training space management etc.
