In this the final series focusing on Teaching Tots we see Matt Fellingham, Head Coach at Royston Tennis Club sharing his wealth of knowledge to pinpoint what exactly he thinks makes a good coach for this specific age group, and how they should approach the delivery of sessions.
What should the coach do
Organisational skills.
* provide a safe environment by defining the playing area
* have simple command words for starting and stopping activities
* use markers, spots, cones to define where children stand and return to
* delivering simple tasks on an individual basis until children mature into being able to cooperate
