Coach Chat with Jack Rolfe about more creativity in training small game dynamics
The mission for Jack Rolfe has been to support as many coaches as possible on a journey of discovery and exploration. Jack's philosophy of “Don’t be boring, be exciting” has certainly influenced the creation of his MatchPlay Cards at The Coaching Lab! The Coach Chat was live on Friday 2019-11-15, so you've missed that...But not to worry, we've got you covered with a recorded video from it all. Below the video replay of this Coach Chat with Jack.

Every Coach Chat session is followed by a Q&A with our coach-speaker. You can ask him/her your questions. We prefer these to be on topic but in case you have an unrelated but pertinent question for this coach feel free to ask it as well by leaving your comment below or contact us here. We will try and have all questions you ask us answered during the Coach Chat session.
Meanwhile take a look at some short clips of previous coach chat sessions...
David Passmore is a former national hockey coach, a sports enthusiast in general, a coach developer and a university lecturer in coaching science & education. He will shed some light on the Irish improvement of recent years with the men qualifying for Rio 2016 and the women stunning the world by taking silver at the most recent world cup in London. He'll also include several lessons and practical tips from all of this for coaches of all levels.
Carlos Garcia Cuenca is and has been the head coach at Real Club de Polo de Barcelona, the top club from Spain, for several years now, winning multiple titles. Previous to that he worked in several capacities for the Spanish federations also. Our Coach Chat was scheduled for 2018-05-18 at 12:30 (CET) and had to be rescheduled to the 25th of May. Carlos talked to us about the press... with a little bit of Spanish flair. Most of his presentation was done in Spanish but we have subtitles in English for those (like me) who do not speak that beautiful language 😉 
Simon Letchford has been around... This experienced coach talks to us in our Coach Chat at 2018-04-20 about "Get a grip!" Basic skills are extremely important obviously. Still coaches struggle teaching the grip, both to beginner as well as experienced players. Changing the grip from receiving, carrying to passing and how to train this will be his topic of choice for our Coach Chat. So maybe you joined us live in this Coach Chat at Friday 2018-04-20 at 12:30h (CET)... or when you were too late for this party ? watch the video (you need to be logged in to see the video) with a full replay. The English coach worked previously at Hockey England and Reading HC in the UK, before joining Belgian hockey in 2012. In Belgium he coached Wellington and Racing Club de Bruxelles and recently moved on full time to the Belgian federation where he is assistant to the Belgian women and head coach for their U21 women's team.
Matthias Becher is a young and coming German coach with some strong views that caught our eye. We asked him to share his insights on "Game intelligence. How to develop it. How to train it."... So please join us live in this Coach Chat at Friday 2018-03-23 at 12:30h (CET)... or when you're too late for this party 😉 watch the video below with a full replay (for logged in viewers only). Matthias is involved in the coaching staff of Mannheim HC (German champions 2017) since 2009. Since 2011 he has had several coaching positions with different German national teams such as assistant coach at the recent junior world cup for the German U21 men or video analyst in Rio 2016 for the men. 
We will offer 4 services:
All of our services will be 100% online and therefore complementary to all regular "off line" courses by federations and local commercial academies. We're endorsed by the FIH Academy... and seek to cooperate with national and continental federations as well as with commercial partners to bring you quality content.
