Our Guest Today:

Justin Yeo is the famous Australian coach who lives in Puerto Rico. The immensely talented coach has worked with all levels of players, from Junior to professional players. His experience of working with many coaches with different styles, have provided him great insights on how a coach should maintain his career.

Key Takeouts of The Episode:

Whether you are a new coach or a seasoned one,regardless of your physical fitness, you must possess some extraordinary qualities to impart in your players. Learn about the details of the capabilities that will assist you in a successful career.

  • Live Demonstration, or, Visual Aid: Over 70% of humans are visual learners. Therefore, when a coach actually practices his proposed training session to his trainee players, the preached idea becomes much more comprehensible for them. Every coach must maintain a minimal level of fitness to pull off at least some portion of his ning strategies. If they are absolutely unable to do so, they should provide video reference of others to help the learners.
  • Updated Knowledge: Sometimes age or physical restrictions, limits the coaches from practicing their proposed ideas. Under such circumstances, coaches should regularly make their methods up to date. To emphasis this, Yeo uses the rotation of shoulder development and how it has evolved in the last 30 years
  • Other Abilities: When it comes to coaches, high performance is always should not be the decider here. As long as a coach passes down good attributes to the players, they should be regarded as good coaches. Yoe cites Nick Politarik and Nick Volansari as examples, both lacking in physical fitness, but while the former is the epitome of a disciplined life, the latter is really good at passing directions.

Yeo also talks about coaches at junior level. Learn how -

  • Enthusiasm and passion for tennis should hold more impotence in a junior level tennis coach than skills or any other thing. Coaches should pass down the passion for the game to the students to ensure that they do not drop out of the sport.
