This presentation was delivered at the Football Innovation Summit in London on Tuesday, April 2nd. This presentation explores the role of attention and coaching language (athlete's thoughts) in influencing motor skill learning (i.e., learning movement). This presentation is for sports coaches, strength coaches, therapists, parents, teachers, and athletes.
This presentation was delivered at the 2017 NBSCA Conference in conjunction with the NBA Combine. The topic focused on the impact of coaching and communication on skill learning.
Presented at the 40th NSCA National Conference in Las Vegas on July 14th, 2017.
This presentation discusses the intersection between motor learning and motivation using self-determination theory as a guide. Learn how optimizing your athlete/client's sense of autonomy, competence, and relatedness leads to a motivational environment that nurtures skill development.
A Sports Coaching Introduction provides a look at the fundamental aim, the development and the inherent challenges for a coach. The components of a successful coach are outlined. These notes are from Chris Oliver's Principles of Coaching Class and are a production of www.basketballimmersion.com. The course examines the art and science of coaching, coaching as an emerging profession, and determine the practical and theoretical principles and procedures that contribute to effective coaching.

This presentation was delivered in 2019 at the Perform Better Summits. This talk focused on the impact coaching language (instructions, cues, and feedback) has on the way people learn to move. Profiling many of the topics covered in my forthcoming book, "The Language of Coaching," this presentation will help anyone who teaches movement elevate HOW they coach to the same level as WHAT they coach.
Motivation is the foundation of all athletic effort and accomplishment. Without your desire and determination to improve your sports performances, all of the other mental factors, confidence, intensity, focus, and emotions, are meaningless. To become the best athlete you can be, you must be motivated to do what it takes to maximize your ability and achieve your goals.
This is John Grace's slidedeck for the 2016 North Carolina Coaches Clinic in Greensboro, North Carolina. This presentation covers the basics of weight room training design for the Track & Field athlete.
Slides will cover research on general training concepts, research on resistance training for Track & Field athletes, exercise selection, and basics of periodization.

Dr. Mike Young has given this lecture to the SOCOM division of the US Armed Forces as well as at the Train Smarter 2015 Summit hosted by the Royal College of Chiropractic Sports Sciences. In this lecture, Dr. Young discusses the High Performance Model used at Athletic Lab sports performance training center and implemented at the collegiate, national and professional teams that they consult for.
Many athletes and coaches are confused about the role of sports psychology in improving athletic performance. Sports psychology is part of the larger field of sport science and studies human behavior in the sport environment and the benefits of mental training on enhancing sports performance. The goal of sports psychology is to help athletes and teams perform their best by improving the necessary mental skills to excel in a sporting endeavor. Sports Psychology is not about working with problem athletes or abnormal behavior.

How to Allow Java Applets for physics labs
Windows 7
Open the lab
Copy and paste the lab site given to desired internet browser
Here I’m using google chrome, you can also use internet explorer or firefox, same results
You will get a security warning click run. It may still not run…
If it doesn’t run go the start menu on your computer. Type java. I click on the Java 32 bit under control panel.
Once opened properly it should look like this.
Click on the security tab, then click on edit site list
Once the exception site list is up click add
Type in the address given. Make sure to first type http:// you do not need the entire site just the main web site title for example http://phy.ntnu.edu.tw
then click add
It will say this is a risk, allow it (click continue) the school would not give you a website that gives you a virus.
Now you are done. Simply reload your web page and you should be able to run the java applet.
Note, we have used about 4 different lab sites that use java this means you have to do this for every new website.
I hope this helps everyone out

The Wildcat Scenario, Page 1
Coach Mitchell’s football Wildcats are down 14-10 with one minute to play. The fans scream as “Recordbook Rodney”, his star tailback, spins away from two tackles, dodges another, then lunges forward, tackled at the 6 yard line, just short of the end zone. Cheering teammates surround Rodney, who – unseen by the officials – throws a cheap shot to the kidney of his tackler. When Rodney gets to his feet, he spits toward the tackler, who is in obvious pain, and then glances to the sidelines to find Coach Mitchell’s eyes fixed on him. It’s obvious to both of them that his actions have flown square in the face of the team philosophy and rules. (Cont.)
The Wildcat Scenario, Page 2
The refs call in the chains while the other team’s trainer assists the injured tackler. The crowd roars as the signal is given: first down and goal. Coach Mitchell calls a time out. Several players slap Rodney on the back as they run to the sidelines, and the PA announcer says, “This is it, Wildcat fans! Six yards away from the first playoff season in 15 years of Huntsville football.” Coach Mitchell is under tremendous pressure to return the Huntsville program to previous glory. Rodney has displayed flagrant and dangerous unsportsmanlike behavior, seen by the coach. What should Coach Mitchell do? What would you do if you were Coach Mitchell?

Interactive Metronome is a research backed technology that has shown to improve everything from the lingering effects of brain injury to ADHD. However, it doesn't stop there. World class athletes and "healthy" individuals have been using it to gain an edge over the competition. That means you can dominate on the field and in the boardroom, so what are you waiting on?
Let Them Play Coaching Conference- Lisburn April 2017Gary Devenney
A presentation that I delivered at a Let Them Play Coaching Conference in April 2017. Aim of the session was to present a number of ideas on coaching behaviour and session layout to be discussed by the coaches to encourage them to engage in reflective practices relating to their own coaching methods and style. Red writing was added to help explain what the slide is showing and was not part of the original presentation.
This presentation discusses the science and application of how to effectively teach and correct movement patterns through the use of language (Explicit Coaching Framework). Based on the science of attentional focus, this presentation will showcase a framework for designing effective instruction, cues and feedback. Considerations for the impact these strategies have on skill acquisition and choking under pressure will be discussed.
This presentation discusses the science and application of how to effectively teach and correct movement patterns through the use of constraints and session variability (Implicit coaching framework). Based on the science of dynamic systems and movement variability, this presentation showcases a framework for designing drills and practice sessions that effectively leverage constraints and variability. Considerations for the impact these strategies have on skill acquisition will be discussed.
Fact or Fiction – An Interactive Journey Through How We Humans LearnNick Winkelman, PhD
This presentation was delivered at the 2017 Orlando & Chicago Perform Better Summits.
Do learning styles exist? Is it better to learn something in the morning or night? How important is sleep for learning? Are external cues still better than internal cues? How does failure in practice influence learning? Does motivation affect that rate someone learns? These questions and more will be unpacked within this presentation. With an abundance of mistruths and attractive lifehacks, it is important to take an honest look at how we humans learn and how we can influence the rate and quality of learning as coaches, trainers, and therapists.
"You Have Not Taught Until They Have Learned" - Learning From The GreatsNick Winkelman, PhD

Perfect practice or pitch perfect: a story about performance & learningNick Winkelman, PhD
Presented @ Huddle Dublin | September 2016
We have all experienced it – the disappointment and confusion that emerges after putting everything we have into studying, practicing and preparing only to experience utter failure when the big moment comes. We reflect, “how could I have been so successful in practice, but perform so poorly when it mattered most.” This disconnect is common, almost ubiquitous, and these situations are often associated with ‘choking under pressure’, ‘test taking anxiety’, ‘stage fright’, or something similar. Whilst dealing with pressure is part of the equation, it is not the whole story. This presentation seeks to demystify a part of this conundrum and provide insights that should help our practice stick when it counts.
Nick Winkelman, PhD | Head Of Athletic Performance and Science, IRFU
We are consistently faced with the difficult challenge of teaching people how to move. Whether it’s helping a client learn a movement for the first time, or a patient to re-learn a pattern after injury, the ability to convey a message that can be translated into physical movement is critical. Despite this importance, we have all faced the challenge of having our instruction, feedback and cues lead to effective movement. What’s more, we face the even greater challenge of getting acute improvements to have lasting effects. So this leaves us with an important question – how do we make learning stick? To answer this question we have to realize an important truth – new information is best understood through the lens of something we already know. Put simply, stories, analogies and metaphors can help us to learn something new by leveraging the experiences and knowledge we already have. As Hannah Arendt once said, “storytelling reveals meaning without committing the error of defining it.” Therefore, we are able to convey the complexities inherent to movement, through the simplicity of the associations that emerge through analogy, metaphor and storytelling. Imbedded in science, logic and experience, this presentation will provide you with a blueprint for making your coaching memorable.

Narrated Business Proposal for the Philadelphia Eaglescamrynascott12
Slide 1:
Welcome, and thank you for joining me today. We will explore a strategic proposal to enhance parking and traffic management at Lincoln Financial Field, aiming to improve the overall fan experience and operational efficiency. This comprehensive plan addresses existing challenges and leverages innovative solutions to create a smoother and more enjoyable experience for our fans.
Slide 2:
Picture this: It’s a crisp fall afternoon, driving towards Lincoln Financial Field. The atmosphere is electric—tailgaters grilling, fans in Eagles jerseys creating a sea of green and white. The air buzzes with camaraderie and anticipation. You park, join the throng, and make your way to your seat. The stadium roars as the Eagles take the field, sending chills down your spine. Each play is a thrilling dance of strategy and skill. This is what being an Eagles fan is all about—the joy, the pride, and the shared experience.
Slide 3:
But now, the day is marred by frustration. The excitement wanes as you struggle to find a parking spot. The congestion is overwhelming, and tempers flare. The delays mean you miss the pre-game excitement, the tailgate camaraderie, and even the opening kick-off. After the game, the joy of victory or the shared solace of defeat is overshadowed by the stress of navigating out of the parking lot. The gridlock, honking horns, and endless waiting drain the energy and joy from what should have been an unforgettable experience.
Our proposal aims to eliminate these frustrations, ensuring that from arrival to departure, your experience is extraordinary. Efficient parking and smooth traffic flow are key to maintaining the high spirits and excitement that make game days special.
Slide 4:
The Philadelphia Eagles are not just a premier NFL team; they are an integral part of the community, hosting games, concerts, and various events at Lincoln Financial Field. Our state-of-the-art stadium is designed to provide a world-class experience for every attendee. Whether it's the thrill of game day, the excitement of a live concert, or the camaraderie of community events, we pride ourselves on delivering a fan-first experience and maintaining operational excellence across all our activities. Our commitment to our fans and community is unwavering, and we continuously strive to enhance every aspect of their experience, ensuring they leave with unforgettable memories.
Slide 5:
Recent trends show an increasing demand for efficient event logistics. Our customer feedback has consistently highlighted frustrations with parking and traffic. Surveys indicate that a significant number of fans are dissatisfied with the current parking situation. Comparisons with other venues like Citizens Bank Park and Wells Fargo Center reveal that we lag in terms of parking efficiency and convenience. These insights underscore the urgent need for innovation to meet and exceed fan expectations.
Slide 6:
As we delve into the intricacies of our operations, one glaring issue emer
