The Art of Engagement: Getting Players to Buy Into Video
Eight coaches and analysts across rugby, football, hockey and GAA on what makes players engage with analysis, and what puts them off.
A panel of eight coaches, analysts and players on the part of video analysis nobody writes a manual for: getting players to care about it.
Speakers include Esther Wills of the FAW, Exeter Chiefs club captain Jack Yeandle, GB Wheelchair Rugby analyst Jem Akpinar, Armagh's Mark Porter, Wimbledon Hockey's Mark Robinson, Matt Jess of Pembrokeshire College, Limerick GAA hurling analyst Sean O'Donnell, and Warrington Wolves analyst Ste Mills.
The conversation covers how presentation style affects attention, what to do when players resist, and how to build a culture where players go looking for their own clips rather than waiting to be shown them. The player's perspective from Jack Yeandle is the part most analysts find uncomfortable and useful.
One of the most widely applicable sessions in the series, whatever sport you work in.
