Location AOAC
Strengths I believe I was able to complete the observation of an athlete well, as I
could easily identify Nez’s strengths and weaknesses in her climbing
ability. I also have knowledge of how she progresses and works at
achieving her goals, as I have climbed with Nez before and understand
that she finds it hard to overcome her fear of falling.
Improvement
Areas
To improve my observations of Nez’s performance I should video each of
her climbs, which consists of her doing a range of different grades so it is
easier to analyze. I should also look at range of ability within different
circumstances to see how well she is able to translate her performance
to other facilities. Such as in indoor climbing at a range of facilities TR
and leading as well as how her performance outdoor climbing on rock.
Points for future
discussion
From observing the athlete, I will make sure that when I come back to
talking to the athlete I will make sure that I use video analysis more and
have an understanding of Nez’s current fitness levels at the time of
assessing or training.
Possible actions I will attend Nez’s next training session and look at specific areas of

Discussion
points
Initially in the meeting with my client Nez, I began by discussing the
reasons and benefits to why performance profiling is beneficial. Once my
client grasped this concept I then moved onto explaining the 20 traits
and using the API and ASA sheet and understanding the scale.
Concerns My concern before meeting the client was how Nez was able to rate
each trait of her performance, with in climbing and how she understood
the scale. I spent along time going through, this included the scale and
understanding the ASA and API sheet. Doing this ensured that I obtained
the correct results.
Points for
future
discussion
Through doing this meeting with the athlete, I believe that Nez has a
better grasp on her strengths and weaknesses of her performance. She is
aware that she needs to work on areas of her performance and how this
will be done through designing a specific training plan. I am confident
that she will committed to improving her performance and is
determined to do so.
Possible When we next meet to asses Nez’s improved abilities, I will ensure that I

Going over 20 traits and scoring each out of 10 for athlete, based on the
key. Looking at strengths and weaknesses of athlete and how these can
be improved or worked on.
Concerns The Scoring was not completely clear ,but overall I asked all the correct
questions and was able to ask about all aspects of performance. To
eliminate this problem I will take more time in explaining ASA and what
API means and give a clear example.
