Teaching Curling Strategy (Or Not) For Kids - Part 1

Send a textIn this episode of Coaching Kids Curling, Coach Glenn tackles one of the toughest curling subjects to teach: Strategy! In the past, new curlers were taught strategy using complex concepts like "FESRAIN" or "Probe/Pursue/Protect." However, Coach Glenn suggests that we need to start with three lessons first, the "building blocks" of strategy. In this week's  “Coaching Tidbit,” we recommend a podcast that will help you use language more effectively.Links to the resources mentioned in the episode:Episode #170 of the Way Of Champions Podcast - The Language of Great Coaching: Nick Winkelman Discusses the Art and Science of Teaching Movementhttps://wayofchampions.libsyn.com/170-nick-winkelman-merged-53120-204-pmFollow our podcast on Twitter: @kidscurlingGlenn Gabriel is an NCCP-certified curling coach who lives in Pickering, Ontario, Canada.
