When Was the Last Time You Had Individualized Coaching for Ultimate?

If you're like most players, it's probably been a long time! The challenge iwth any team sport is that it's easy to fall through the cracks. A team coach usually has more than 20 players to worry about. How many of your on-field repetitions can they even see in a practice or a game? Unfortunately, not many. And if you're in teh middle of the roster, you just might not get the type of time an attention that coud propel your ultimate game to new heights!

Or maybe you actually are the coach of captain of your team. You got there because you're one of the more experiences players. But now who is coaching you? You spend a lot of time and energy on your teammates. Maybe you'd like to have someone helping and supporting you!

Typical Clients Tend to Have One or More of These Characteristics...

• You have a specific team you want to make. You know you have a shot, but the outcome is far from guaranteed.
• You started ultimate later than most. Maybe you've never had good coaching and you'd like to catch up to those who have.
• You're getting a bit older. You'd like to really see what you're made and how far you can go while you still can.

Coaching for Beginner, Intermediate, and Elite Ultimate Frisbee Players

I've coached a wide variety of ultimate players. I've come to learn that what players need at once level isn't the same thing they need at the next level. This is why sometimes just trying to copy what elite players are doing doesn't always turn out so well. Your progress as a player will happen most quickly when you're working on things that are right for you!

Sometimes players feel stuck and don't know what they need to do next. Or maybe you feel like you "don't know what you don't know." Especially if you've never had ultimate frisbee coaching, it's easy to feel a bit insecure about the gaps in your knowledge. One of the things clients appreciate about all of our programming is that we help you distill your goals into a step by step process.

What I've found with intermediate and elite players is that often they get "stuck" pursuing tiny incremental improvements in athleticism. When what they really need is either Game IQ related or Mental Toughness and Confidence.

If you want to find out if ultimate frisbee coaching is right for you, I suggest you book a call! We'll have a chat about your goals and the timeline in which you want to achieve them. If it's a good fit, we'll talk about how we can work together! Or if not, I'll at least point you to some resources that will help you head in the right direction.
