How Get Fit for Coaching - A Skill Practice Game works:
After a brief presentation on the five key coaching skills, teams begin the first round of play, racing against the clock to answer coaching questions correctly, developing a sharper understanding of the five key skills. In round two, participants are asked to respond to everyday coaching situations, earning a 'letter card' for each correct response. The first team to earn a card for each letter in the word 'Coach' wins the game.
Get Fit for Coaching - A Skill Practice Game Learning Outcomes:
- Practice and strengthen the five key coaching skills
