About Eleni

I am on the National team of Cyprus for track and field. I have represented Cyprus at 3000m in the International Junior Match in Telaviv (Israel). I have also represented Cyprus twice in the Panhellenic Games, Greece. Furthermore, I have been awarded ‘The best female athlete award’ by my school, American Academy, during 2016-2019. I love sports. I have been a track and field varsity athlete in the Gymnastic Club Zenon (GSZ), Larnaca for the last nine years and I train almost every day. My specialized game is 3000m but I also run 5000, 1500, 1000, 600, or 400 meters. I am on the Rowing Team and tennis team at the University of Warwick. Given the hard work, I have managed to improve my performance and win a number of awards, as described below. I am very proud and happy to have represented Cyprus internationally.

About the lesson

Life Coaching is a method of mentoring and helping people achieve their goals or master specific skills. A wonderful series of techniques can be applied with transformative effect in your own life, as well as applied to others.

The problem is that many coaches don’t understand how to teach athletics effectively. Plus, some coaches don’t take the time to grasp how athletes learn. Here are nine proven steps to becoming a better teacher and a better coach.

Before jumping into coaching, coaches first must understand their passion for the game. Having a high level of passion for the sport tremendously influences your energy, creativity and ability to motivate players. Passion is contagious. If one player or one assistant coach comes to practice excited and fired up, that emotion and passion easily is passed to every other member of the team.

Part of your caring is to work through players’ mistakes. Tell them mistakes are part of the learning process, and the only true mistakes are ones of lack of effort or concentration — both of which easily are corrected.

Don’t assume players know why you are asking them to practice a certain technique or to perform a skill drill. I always explain how everything has a positive effect on their ability to play. Be as detailed as possible, because it’s important that they understand why you’re doing certain things.

Oftentimes, it’s necessary to teach skills in parts or steps. Once again, in-depth knowledge of fundamentals gives you an advantage. Teaching a skill in part keeps the player motivated, because they are forming a mental checklist for performing the skill correctly. Educators refer to this as “task-analysis.”

Moving from one step to the next puts the focus on progress, which allows you to praise the player for grasping a skill and working with the player in areas that need more practice. A good barometer to know if a player is mastering a certain skill is to see if that player is teaching the skill to another teammate.

I also find something positive to say to every athlete at every practice. This satisfies the athlete’s need for attention, recognition, and appreciation. I always attempt to find more positives than negatives while constantly praising effort.

Productive coaching is highly dependent on the coach’s ability to teach their sport. Teaching isn’t just blowing a whistle, barking out orders and heading home after a couple of hours. Being a good teacher takes time, effort, practice, patience and a passion to make a difference in the lives of your players.
