Remote Coaching and Match Analysis

Remote Tournament Coaching:

Here’s the Game Plan!

01

Pre-Match Check in

  • Connect with parent/athlete to make sure video feed is working, and confirm we are able to effectively speak and communicate (earbuds are ideal).
  • Discuss with the athlete how they’re feeling, gather thoughts and provide gameplan advice if appropriate.
  • Address any specific issues or concerns, opponent, conditions, etc.
  • Promote and assist with positive self talk and positive mindset for the upcoming match. 

02

Experienced In-Match Guidance

  • Provide advice and feedback on strategy and tactics.
  • Offer encouragement and emotional support between games. 
  • Help establish and maintain confidence and self belief throughout the match.

03

Post-Match Recap

  • Quick recap, encouragement, and any important post match thoughts.
  • Provide a short age appropriate match report.
    • Note of winners/errors and locations.
    • One or two important takeaways from the match.
    • Ability to aggregate data for multiple matches at a tournament.

“Julian has a wealth of experience playing at the highest level. He’s seen it all and brings a calm, focused, and enthusiastic energy to his coaching. I wouldn’t be the player or person I am today without his help.”

Deep Dive With Detailed Video Match Analysis & Reports

We analyze data from a match with our statistics tracking model, and are then able to highlight areas of strength and weakness. Combining this data with our professional expertise, we present video showcasing areas with repeated mistakes, and map paths for improvement.

Breaking down a full match into short clips demonstrating specific tactical errors or technical breakdowns cuts away the distractions, and allows our clients to focus in on the important details. Our reports are designed to be an informative tool for the student and their coach to help highlight major areas for improvement.

Each report is reviewed in detail over zoom with the client to ensure comprehension and ownership. We review the data, talk through our video examples, and then discuss ways to work on and improve those areas.

Our goal is to be a supplemental resource for a player and their primary coach, using our expertise and interest in data and video editing to facilitate a difficult and underutilized component of squash coaching.
