- In this episode of the Coaching 101 podcast, Coach Chambo and Coach Kenny Simpson delve into the concept of using 'tags' in coaching to simplify complex plays and strategies for players. The conversation highlights how tags can make a big impact by slightly altering plays, without overcomplicating the learning process for athletes. The discussion covers both offensive and defensive plays, stressing the importance of adapting coaching methods to the players' abilities and keeping the strategy simple yet effective. The episode also emphasizes that successful coaching is not about the quantity of knowledge a coach possesses but about what they can effectively impart to their athletes.
