Coaching Session Review for Developing Stage Session 1 Criteria (D)
1. Outline the aim/objectives of your coaching
session Aim – To introduce the Layup in Basketball
Objectives
 To establish the release of the basketball for the Layup
 To establish the stepping movement involved in the Layup
 To establish the jumping action for the Layup
 To provide a basic understanding of the rules of basketball
2. Were the aim/objectives met during the
coaching session?
Yes the aims and objectives were met because during the drills the class
showed an improvement of the Layup they performed from start to finish
and had gained more knowledge of basketball including the rules,
technique etc.
3. Evaluate what aspects were successful and
what aspects need improving in your
coaching session
Consider:
Time keeping
Dress (appropriate)
Appropriate use of coaching aids
Area prepared for session/area cleared
Introduction
Safety checks (participants/equipment)
Aim and objectives clearly defined
Appropriate warm up
My time keeping on the session could have been improved as I had used too
much time by the time I moved on to my cool down which meant it was
rushed and not completed properly
My dress code was professional as I wore my full tracksuit, polo shirt and
had a whistle and a stopwatch
My introduction was kept to the point and clearly stated my aims and
objectives. My health and safety points were mentioned during the start of
the warm up.
Warm up was useful as the last part was related to a game of basketball

Appropriate and accurate use of
demonstrations
Positioning and clear instructions throughout
Appropriate and accurate use of coaching
points
Progression and management of practices
Maximum participation
General class control
Keeps group motivated
Suitably challenging activities
Offers technically sound information
appropriate to the group
Provides individual and group feedback
Appropriate conditioned game and/or
activity
Appropriate cool down/conclusion/debrief
to session/questioning
Time management and pace of delivery
and helped participants understand a pressured game situation
My demonstrations could have been explained better and I didn’t
demonstrate enough as I would usually only do 1 demonstrations and move
on which lead to some people not understanding the drill
My positioning was good as I was moving around group to group and was
also standing in a good position when demonstrating
Each drill progressed well on to the one after it and it got increasingly
more difficult every time
Due to a small class there wasn’t a lot of cues which meant there was a
good amount of participation in the session
Class control was kept good throughout the session until the explanation of
the game where people were talking and I didn’t notice because I was
facing the other way
The group were motivated as I included a small challenge with a Layup
race which meant they wanted to carry on with the session
My individual feedback was quite good as I was going from group to group
and telling people what they were doing right and wrong. However my
group feedback needed a bit of improvement as I didn’t really give any
Conditioned game was appropriate for the activity as the coned off areas
helped emphasise the layup
Cool Down and my debrief felt as though they were rushed as I didn’t carry
out stretches for long enough and the Q&A was also very quick
Time management could have been improved as drills were too long and

cool down was too short but the pace of delivery was good throughout the
session
4. What changes would you make to the
coaching plan?
Manage my timings better by following my guidelines and try to speed up
marking out the drills

coaching session?
The aim was met during the session however some of the objectives were
not met due to by the end of the session participants were still using the
wrong hand position when they were dribbling and using two hands.
However I would say that everyone had the correct footwork and position
when they were dribbling

My time keeping on the session was good as the schedule I had planned I
kept to and followed the times on it
objectives. My health and safety points were mentioned during the start of
the warm up

Appropriate warm up
demonstrations
points
activity
Warm up was useful as it involved a small game which can help in a real
game such as keeping your head up to look for space, pass etc.
My positioning could have been improved as I had to partner up with one of
the participants for around 2 minutes while his partner was away to the
toilet and I felt I didn’t get to see the rest of the class as much as I would
have liked to
Each drill progressed by difficulty level and gave the participants a
challenge
The class was quite big and there was some ques when it came to the 2nd
and 3rd drill which could have been worked on by adding an extra line
Class control could have been improved as during my explanations some
participants would either talk over me or not pay attention and not know
what to do.
The group were motivated as they wanted to beat the defenders on the
final drill and were excited and motivated to do so
My individual feedback was ok as some people improved their technique
when I gave them some advice but sometimes people wouldn’t listen and
their dribbling technique was poor
Conditioned game was appropriate for the activity as the gates helped
emphasise dribbling and helped improve it in a pressured situations
Cool Down and my debrief were appropriate and included the correct
muscles to stretch and included a short summary of the session
Time management was good as drills were kept to appropriate times and

the session overall was kept to the 30 minute mark
coaching plan?
Maybe next time make the drills more challenging and also keep the class
focused and under control more by asking them questions about what I told
them about a certain technique so I know their paying attention.

Core Drills/Activities
1. Form Shooting – Players
stand around 2 feet away
from the basket and
practice their shooting
form and to get a better
understanding of the
technique used for
shooting and to help them
for the next drill
2. Two Line Shooting Drill -
Involves two lines of
players standing to each
side of the basket. One
line takes a jump shot
from one of the cones and
after the shot the other
collects/rebounds the ball
and the players swap
lines. After each player
has had a few shots the
shooting line is changed to
the rebounding side to let
from a different angle.
Aim – To help players with their
technique of shooting. To introduce
shooting into basketball
Objectives – To provide a better
understanding of players own shooting
ability. To establish a realistic
shooting scenario. To allow players to
practice shooting and new skills with
little pressure
Drill 1
 To begin the shot, crouch down with your
knees apart and face the basket
 Aim for the ball to loop quite high and
focus on the shot to be continuous and try
to get into a rhythm
Drill 2
 Straighten legs when releasing the ball
and release the ball at the peak of your
jump
Drill 3
 Straighten legs when releasing the ball
and release the ball at the peak of your
jump

Each time a player gets a
shot in they move to the
next cone which will be
further away. If they miss
they stay at the same
cone
3. Catch and Shoot – Similar
to drill 2 except one line
sits under the basket
which are defending and
one line stands just
behind the free throw line
which is the shooter line.
The defending line passes
the ball to the shooter
line and then the
defender runs towards the
shooter to add some
pressure to the shooter
whereas the shooter needs
to try and score with the
added pressure. Players
swap lines with each other
after each shot.
Conditioned Game – Focus on
shooting within a game by telling
attacker they can’t enter the
area close to the basket so they
have to take a jump shot. Only
defenders are allowed in their
own area and attackers have to
stay outside the area
 Use you weaker hand as a support for the
shot and this would help balance the ball

objectives. Health and safety points were also added and participant
injuries were also covered
Warm up was useful as it helped match what would happen in a real game
of basketball as someone might steal the ball and players need to learn to
shield the ball with their body to mirror a real game
My positioning was good as I was moving around group to group and
standing in between groups when explaining drills and demonstrations
Each drill progressed well on to the next one as it slowly developed the
participants ability of the shooting action in basketball
Due to a small class there wasn’t a lot of cues which meant there was a
good amount of participation in the session
Class control was kept under good control as the class payed attention to
when I was explaining and demonstrations drills
The group could have been more motivated as I didn’t include a small
game related drill between the drills and this meant the children weren’t
as motivated as they could have been
My individual feedback could have been improved as I focused more on the
group instead of the individuals completing the drills

Conditioned game was appropriate for the activity as the limited area gave
teams better opportunities to take a jump shot
Cool Down could have been improved as kept it short as I needed to talk to
the class in the debrief so may have rushed it
Time management could have improved as some drill times were a bit
inconsistent

was carried out correctly and to the time schedule
My introduction included everything I should have such as aims, objectives,
safety and injuries

Introduction
Appropriate warm up
demonstrations
points
activity
Warm up was good and included useful stretches which helped warm the
muscles that were going to be used during the game and drills.
My positioning was good throughout the session as I could clearly see the
whole class and explained drills with everyone sitting down and focused on
my explanations
Each drill moved on to a more challenging drill well and the class were
able to complete the drills while also challenging themselves
The class size was around 12 people which meant there wasn’t any cues as
the drills involved everyone in the group
Class control could have been improved as during explanations people
would talk over me or not pay attention. Also sometimes people would
shout out when I was speaking
The group were motivated during the 1st drill and this helped them with
the rest of the session as they wanted to carry out more drills
My individual feedback was good as everyone in the group was getting their
own feedback and this helped them improve their performance and
technique
Conditioned game was appropriate for the activity as it emphasised passing
and helped people practice passing in a game situation
Cool Down was good and helped slowly relax the muscles that were used
during the session and the Q&A featured the right questions about the
session

Time management was good as the sessions warm up, drills and cool down
were all kept to the time schedule

 To introduce man-to-man defence and defensive stance

2. Were the aim/objectives met during
the coaching session?
The aim was met to introduce defence into basketball but the objectives were
quite difficult to achieve as the session may have been too hard for the ability
level and many players struggled to understand the footwork and defensive stance
3. Evaluate what aspects were
successful and what aspects need
improving in your coaching session
Consider:
Time keeping
Dress (appropriate)
Introduction
Appropriate warm up
demonstrations
points
activity
My time keeping was good as I kept to my 30 minute mark and every drill
was carried out correctly and to the time schedule
My introduction included everything I should have such as aims, objectives,
safety and injuries
Warm up was good and included useful stretches which helped warm the
muscles that were going to be used during the game and drills.
My positioning was good throughout the session as I could clearly see the
whole class and explained drills with everyone sitting down and focused on
my explanations
Each drill moved on to a more challenging drill however some children
found it quite difficult and I didn’t think of an alternate but most of the
children were challenging themselves
The class size was around 12 people which meant there wasn’t any cues as
the drills involved everyone in the group
Class control could have been improved as during explanations people
would talk over me or not pay attention. Also sometimes people would
shout out when I was speaking
The group were motivated during the 1st drill and this helped them with

the rest of the session as they wanted to carry out more drills
My individual feedback was good as everyone in the group was getting their
own feedback and this helped them improve their performance and
technique
Conditioned game was appropriate for the activity as it emphasised passing
and helped people practice passing in a game situation
Cool Down was good and helped slowly relax the muscles that were used
during the session and the Q&A featured the right questions about the
session
Time management was good as the sessions warm up, drills and cool down
were all kept to the time schedule
coaching plan?
Class control could have been worked on and the difficulty of the drills
could have been altered to make them easier. Also making explanations
more straightforward so the players can understand it and be able to
perform it to a better standard
