Self evaluation
Before starting my sessions, I made sure I was dressed appropriately, wearing a Sports leader T-shirt, shorts and trainers, this shows to the pupils that I wanted and was ready to coach them instead of turning up in jeans and a shirt not looking bothered or sporty at all.
I was set with explaining the Olympic value 'RESPECT', this is a very important value for sport as this makes the sport fun and competitive, it also allows others to get involved in the sport without feeling left out or unwelcome. I made sure that i explained the rules which consisting of; when the ball goes off the pitch instead of throwing you kick and Goalkeepers were not allowed to use their hands. Some didn't like it but they had to be respectful and follow the rules I had set.
When I was explaining everything and getting the group into teams, teh pupils listened to me and did not mess around, they were either polite and well mannered or I had seemed friendly and they decided to respect me whilst I was talking, I also started the session quickly to prevent the pupils from getting bored, which would then cause them to talk and mess around with equipment.
When talking to the pupils, I ensured I spoke clearly and politely to them whilst acting friendly, this meant that they would not see me as a nasty person which allows myself to look approachable if I asked them somethign or if they asked me something.
When asking questions I made sure that I explained what the question was about and then ask a direct question to the group so they know how to answer the question, for example; Respect is very important for sports because it welcomes people to the sport, but what does it mean overall (General and specific to the sporting world).
Before the lesson began, I felt pretty nervous because I have not coached for a while but as the groups were coming and going I felt my confidence grow the activities became much easier to explain and get through it without any porblems, all ran smoothly.
Throughout the whole hour of coaching, none of the pupils were nasty to others, over talking people, or hitting ot kicking others. This was why I had a tough decision of who to pick to give a certificate for respecting others.
Overall, I think the session went very well as the acticities ran smoothly and the children seemed to enjoy themselves which was evry satisfying. I also believe I spoke clearly which enable the children to understand what I was saying first time and knew exactly what to do and what the rules are.
The areas I think I could improve on is being more confident as the start of the sessions, because the first group will then be able to get into the lesson immediately and enjoy themselves, I will also plan different varieties of activities as I believe that the children sometimes get bored of doing football all the time, all the boys like to play football but some of the girls within the groups didn't really want to play.
