How to share technical proposals: Create an effective methodology
Summary
It's easy with YouCoachApp! Share your technical ideas and discuss them with your collaborators to create a unique shared methodology
The most complicated (but also the most exciting) part of a coach's job is to create a methodology of our own. We already saw how to engage the staff  by creating and sharing drills, but it's not enough: You need to increase the level of cooperation.

Sharing ideas and technical proposals is the foundation for a good confrontation between workmates of the same Soccer Club and this process usually involves the technical manager. The role of a technical manager is to establish a methodology and provide training sessions' guidelines; they also monitor how the technical agenda is implemented, suggesting corrections and adaptations while coordinating training activities for coaches. All these actions that contribute to the creation of a shared methodology are linked to work sharing with staff members; thanks to its offer designed specifically for Clubs, it becomes easier with YouCoachApp!

HOW TO SHARE TECHNICAL PROPOSALS

In order to share a methodology inside a soccer team staff, the tools provided by the Club aren't always enough: notebooks, management softwares and meetings are insufficient to collect and organize so many technical proposals that come from Club's coaches. More advanced tools are necessary, tools that have been designed for soccer staffs, from amateur Clubs to professional ones. Let's see what to do to share your work with other coaches of your staff:

CREATE AN INCUBATOR TO COLLECT TECHNICAL PROPOSALS

A virtual office for your staff

YouCoach's staff took care of all those Clubs that need to share technical proposals and drills. From a case study analysis and with the help of some professional technical managers, we created a Club-specific offer which includes YouCoachApp's Incubator for Clubs. But what is it?

  • The Incubator is a virtual room that staff members can use to propose, discuss and approve drills and training sessions
  • It can be used by coaches to propose anything to the technical manager 
  • It can be used by the technical manager to evaluate and approve staff members' proposals
  • It allows to share approved drills and practices with all Club's teams.

 

YouCoachApp Incubator

The incubator collects all technical proposals made by the coaches of a Club

 

Activating the Incubator feature means:

  • You can customize basic settings;
  • You can give access to the Incubator to other staff members.

Create the Club's Incubator

The technical manager can create and customize the Club's Incubator 

Invite staff members to join the incubator

The technical manager can invite collaborators and decide which actions they are allowed to do 

 

Here's how to create a "virtual office" in which to share work with the staff and where to start building a methodology. Let's examine in detail the evaluation of those technical proposals that will expand the Club's database. 

TRAINING SESSIONS LAB: HOW TO PROPOSE, REVIEW AND APPROVE PRACTICES

Promote your staff members' best ideas and drills

Thanks to the Incubator feature, all coaches that have access to it can create and propose their personal soccer practices: these proposals enter a review and approval process that allows technical managers to decide which ones comply more closely with the Club guidelines. 

  • The phases of this process are:
    1. Training session draft: in this phase the training session has been created by the coach and is visible only to them (neither the manager nor other staff members can see it)
    2. Training session submitted: this phase starts the review process, now the technical manager can see the training session
    3. Training session in review: the technical manager examines the proposal and suggests possible changes
    4. Training session approved: the training session has been approved by the technical manager, who can decide to share it with other teams. Once approved, a training session is available in the Training Sessions list in the Incubator

The review process of the Incubator allows you to share work easily and effectively. Using notes it is possible to discuss the proposal and suggest changes

 

Send to teams (Incubator)Incubator notes

Each training session can be sent to the Club's teams and commented to promote adaptations and changes

 

Through this process technical managers can evaluate coaches' training proposals, promoting the most interesting ones and sharing them with other teams. Let's see how this process works with drills.

DRILLS LAB: HOW TO PROPOSE, REVIEW AND APPROVE EXERCISES

Bring out the best ideas and drills created by your staff

The Incubator contains not only training sessions, but also every individual drill created by the Club's coaches and approved by the technical manager: it's a shared database of great value! Every coach who participates to the Incubator can propose their drills. In order to do it, they should click on the tab "Custom Drills", then "Show My Custom Drills" and click on the drill: to submit it to the technical manager, click on "Edit" and then, at the bottom of the page, click on "Propose to the Incubator" (as shown below).

 

Submission to Incubator

Each coach can submit their drills to the Incubator and they will undergo the Club's review process

 

This is the first step that starts the evaluation process: Once the drill has been submitted, it becomes available under "Drills Lab" and can be evaluated and then approved.

Using notes, the technical manager can suggest changes and the coach can read these comments. Then, if the drill is approved, all the Club's teams will be able to use it.

Review process of a drill

Drills LabComment the drill

Coaches and managers can comment drills to discuss the most suitable methodological choices

 

Through these two processes, drills and training sessions can be discussed by the technical staff, approved as they comply with the guidelines and stored in the Club's database thanks to the Incubator, the virtual office available on YouCoachApp. 

HOW TO FILE AND USE APPROVED DRILLS AND TRAINING SESSIONS

Create the Club's database of technical drills and consolidate your methodology

Drills that your staff has created are stored online, becoming the “technical heritage” of the Club. In addition, approved drills will be available for all the teams and their coaches when creating a new training session (we already talked about how to create a new training session on YouCoachApp).

Training sessions created by your staff and approved are stored online and are always available for all the teams with which they have been shared.

Now that we've seen how to collaborate with other coaches and staff members, let's move on to players. In this article we examine how you can contact your players and share with them soccer practices, drills and events. All your players data is always available for you to simplify your work with the team.
