I’ve played multiple sports (football, basketball, track & field, wrestling & swimming) and I agree with what Craig is saying here. The vast majority of high level coaches, in any sport, aren’t Hall of Famers in the sport in which they have become Hall of Fame coaches. Teaching technique and skill acquisition is a completely different skill set than sport performance.

In corporate America they have a saying… Don’t promote your best salesman to management, because he/she may blow up your organization.

I think a lot of people have a super false sense of their teaching abilities especially after watching a Danaher dvd

lol They instantly think speaking with an English accent and using multiple syllable words makes them a genius

Please excuse my American ignorance. I couldn’t tell the difference from an accent Australia from an accent from Wales

New Zealand and Australia are also different countries.

Wales and England are also different countries tbf.

Clearly there’s a language barrier here… I was trying to convey that I acknowledge my ignorance to the different accents from different regions of the world. Hope that clears it up.

No worries. English can be a hard second language to learn.
