ASSOCIATION SKILLS

The fundamental element of any sport is skill.
One of the most important roles of an Association Croquet Coach is to ensure players are able to 
learn, practice, and master all basic skills. Knowing when to concentrate on certain elements and 
when it is time to introduce new learning is critical.
It is also about consistency and having the ability to identify and fix repeated errors and
mistakes correctly.
Repetition is one of the best ways to identify an opportunity for improvement. Completing specific 
drills a number of times can be powerful when trying to improve any skill.
Our expectations need to be realistic and measurable, ensuring any suggested corrections are based 
from consistent observations.
