INSTRUCTIONS:

Prepare and submit an analysis of the coaching process model in your text. This assignment is intended to help you make connections between theory and practice and to critically assess the utility of the proposed model. Your analysis must include 2 sections:

1. An edited version of the Coaching Model Flow Chart (found below) and
2. A critical analysis of the utility of the model that includes a partial redesign.

For Section 1: Using the Coaching Model Flow Chart (provided below) you will make comments on the document by reflecting on and analyzing your own coaching practice (which is baseball). The comments you make in the flow chart should be specific examples of applying the model to your sport and your coaching practice, to the extent that this is possible.

• When not possible, you must comment on the reason why aptness does not apply and relate to #3 in Section 2 below.
• Note: The comments must be shown on the actual Coaching Model Flow Chart. It is advised that you print the chart, write your comments on the chart, and then scan and upload the chart to your computer. You can submit this with the second portion of your assignment.

For Section 2: Using the 3 sections outlined in Chapter 7 of your text, critically assess the utility of the model for coaching your sport according to the following:

1. Sport Specificity,
2. Systematic Coaching Behaviors; and
3. Adapting the Model

• Note: This section must include the re-design of 1 component of the model that you have identified as not apt for your coaching context in Section 1.
