Try to be better than yesterday! That is the simple but effective strategy for achieving world class results with near optimal deployment of limited resources Team Para Atletiek uses. I have admired their enthousiastic common sense approach form the moment they started. Starting from a given situation far from perfection, making use of and learning from diversity, and competing with yourself instead of just aiming to beat a competitor are some of the key elements in their daily practice. And the "Try" may be one of the most important ones: Don't apply the pressure of wanting good results every time but optimise and be open minded enough to explore things you haven't thought of yet. A lot of organisations may profit from learning from this approach. Others, like Toyota, have been using a very similar approach and also have become world class players, getting ahead of competition slowly but surely. I would advise your organisation try to learn and profit from experiences of Team Para Atletiek. It can only make your company and the lives of the people in it better. And it will optimise your position w.r.t. to competitors without even competing with them.

Is CLA the best approach to motor learning in sports, martial arts or police training? Although we have been working with implicit motor learning, game sense approaches, and constraint manipulation (for example, in PMT we have been working with context manipulation for decades) in the Netherlands since 2011 the Constraints-Led Approach (CLA) seems to be very popular at the moment. Sometimes CLA is presented as the only and best solution. In the post from the day before yesterday, you could read some responses from experts like John O'Neill, Henk Kraaijenhof . See that discussion here ✔https://lnkd.in/eDF9tnqM Today, I want to share the article by Bobrownicki et al. The authors argue for an integrative approach that balances cognitive and perceptual aspects of performance. They contend that cognitive processes, such as understanding plays, decision-making, and the development of Shared Mental Models, are crucial for effective team coordination and performance. The authors emphasize that a singular focus on fluid athlete-environment interactions may overlook the importance of structured practices and cognitive preparation that are essential for navigating the dynamic and strategic nature of American football. Ultimately, the authors call for a broader consideration of various theoretical perspectives and approaches in coaching practice to optimize player performance and development, rather than strict adherence to any one theoretical stance. Cognition Shared Mental Models, they emphasize, are crucial for effective coordination on the field, helping players anticipate movements and make informed decisions. Without these models, relying solely on fluid interactions could cause confusion, particularly during substitutions. They stress the importance of cognitive processes in American football, where players must understand roles and strategies to execute plays effectively. While some actions may be automatic, higher-level cognition remains essential for navigating game complexities. A balance between cognition and perception is necessary for players to plan and execute actions, considering the game context and constraints like time and space. ✔ Bobrownicki, R., Carson, H.

The College is excited to announce a new partnership with Hockey NT and the Territory Stingers! 🏑 The partnership will see Hockey NT and SEDA College NT working closely together to merge practical sports education with real-world hockey experiences. SEDA students will benefit from direct involvement with Hockey NT programs, gaining access to elite coaching, hands-on event management, and pathways to careers in the sports industry. Moreover, the integration of the Territory Stingers program and brand into SEDA’s curriculum will facilitate a range of exciting opportunities for students as the Stingers look to build their program into the Southeast Asia and Oceania regions. Jason Butcher, CEO of Hockey NT, emphasised the importance of this collaboration, stating, "This partnership with SEDA College NT is an important step forward for Hockey NT. Our mission goes beyond just nurturing talent in hockey; it’s about developing future leaders for the entire community. By aligning our vision with SEDA's innovative educational approach, we're providing Territory youth with exceptional opportunities to grow, learn, and succeed. This partnership is not just about sport; it’s about creating a brighter future for our young people and the broader community." SEDA College NT has built a strong reputation for its student-centred learning model, which combines academic education with practical, real-world experience. Through this partnership, SEDA students will gain hands-on experience in various aspects of hockey, from playing to event organisation, offering them a comprehensive understanding of the sports industry. Francis Gill, Principal of SEDA College NT, echoed this sentiment, saying, "We are thrilled to partner with Hockey NT and the Territory Stingers to provide our students with such valuable experiences. This partnership aligns perfectly with our educational philosophy and Hockey NT's commitment to community engagement and youth development. Together, we aim to create an environment where students can excel both academically and personally." “The incorporation of the Territory Stingers brand into the SEDA College NT program is not just a collaboration between sport and education but a catalyst for inspiring the next generation of leaders. As the Stingers look to expand their reach across Southeast Asia and Oceania, this partnership will empower students to be part of a legacy, providing them with hands-on experience and unparalleled opportunities to grow within the hockey community. This is a significant step in building a future where students not only learn the game but actively contribute to its development both locally and globally." Jason Butcher added. The partnership is set to officially commence in the 2025 school year. For students looking to enrol at SEDA College in Years 10, 11, or 12 in 2025 as part of the Hockey NT Program should contact the Admissions Team on 1300 337 332 or visit www.seda.nt.edu.au

Meer dan ooit is de wereld gefixeerd op afvallen. In het afgelopen jaar is het aantal online zoekopdrachten naar “oefeningen om af te vallen” met 552% gestegen en het aantal video's gewijd aan lichaamsbeweging en afvallen” is meer dan verdubbeld. Onderzoek toont aan dat deze focus op lichaamsbeweging puur als middel om af te vallen: - onrealistische lichaamsnormen creëert - ons mentale welzijn beïnvloedt - ons ervan weerhoudt om te sporten Als antwoord hierop zijn we begonnen met het promoten van een ander soort gewichtsverlies. We werken samen met body-positive influencers om de sociale media te verstoren met een alternatieve boodschap voor gewichtsverlies. Bij ASICS geloven we dat de kracht van sport verder gaat dan het lichaam. We willen dat mensen sporten voor hoe ze zich voelen en niet alleen voor hoe ze eruit zien. Daarom heten we ASICS: Anima Sana In Corpore Sano, wat Latijn is voor een gezonde geest in een gezond lichaam. En daarom introduceren we met trots onze campagne “15 Minute Weight Loss” - een serie video's om te laten zien hoe slechts 15 minuten beweging ons al van het gewicht van onze mind af kan helpen. Check de video hieronder!   #15MinuteWeightLoss #MoveYourMindwithASICS #SoundMindSoundBody

JU-JI GATAME SYSTEM Turkey Grand Prix 2016 We discuss with our -18 athletes at Camberley Judo Club the importance of knowing what they are going for in groundwork before they have even hit the deck. Pick a technique; remembering in Judo we are, 90% of the time, attacking an opponent on all fours or flat on their front- choice of technique should always reflect this. Drill the life out of it, continuously attempt it in randori (sparring), begin to work out and find solutions to all methods of defence the opponent summons. Repeat the process. Here, in this clip, there is transition between: 1. Ju-ji roll with same side arm in 2. Ju-ji from guard 3. Ju-ji roll with opposite arm in 4. Ju-ji hold down 5. Ju-ji hold side belly down finish Was taught Ju-ji by Commonwealth Games Champion, Jim Warren, on first moving to Camberley to train full time.

As if I wrote it myself, John Rooms is the author of several books focused on running and injury prevention. His works include "Blessurevrij Lopen" ("Injury-Free Running"), "De Kracht van Hardlopen" ("The Power of Running"), "Learn to Run," and "Footsteps." Each book covers different aspects of running, from techniques and training plans to avoiding injuries and optimizing performance. - **"Blessurevrij Lopen"** emphasizes strategies and practices for running without getting injured, providing tips on proper form, recovery, and maintenance.    - **"De Kracht van Hardlopen"** delves into the benefits of running, both physical and mental, and offers guidance on how to harness running to improve overall well-being.    - **"Learn to Run"** is geared towards beginners, offering step-by-step instructions on how to start running, develop a routine, and build endurance safely.    - **"Footsteps"** might focus on the journey of a runner, possibly intertwining personal stories with practical advice on how to progress and succeed in the running world. John Rooms’ books are valuable resources for runners of all levels, aiming to enhance their running experience while minimizing the risk of injury. Thanks ChatGPT. All books are available in a bookstore near you. ENJOY! ( written by myself)

🏑 From Polkadots to Penalty Shots (and Planes)! 🏑 We’re not just spreading risk across Spain, the Netherlands, and Dubai – we’re also spreading cheer as proud sponsors of the Fletiomare Girls U12 hockey team (rocking their polka-dotted socks 🧦) and the Kampong Gents 1st Team (no polka dots, just goals!). 🎯 Oh, and if you spot the company logo on the Kampong shirts, that’s one of our very own concepts – part of the group! 🙌 You’ll see it in action starting this Sunday as Kampong faces off against Klein Zwitserland. 🏑 Currently cheering from Dubai (with sand between our toes), but catch us tomorrow flying off to Spain. 🌍✈️ Who says spreading risk and managing real estate can’t be a globe-trotting adventure? Our website? Still a “work-in-progress” (kinda like our jetlag recovery 😴), but between closing deals, boarding planes, and cheering from the sidelines, we’ll get there. Eventually. Until then, whether it’s real estate, risk management, or really good hockey, we’ve got you covered. And if you spot us at the games, come say hi – we’ll be the ones juggling phones, laptops, and pom-poms. 🖥️🎉 📢 By the way, Spain and Dubai are full of exciting opportunities right now – whether you’re investing in real estate or looking to minimize risk, there’s never been a better time to talk! #HockeySponsors #RealEstateAndRisk #PolkadotsAndPenaltyShots #DubaiToSpain #TooBusyWinning #OpportunitiesInSpain #OpportunitiesInDubai #Kampong
