<strong>Coaching</strong> Tip<br />

When communicating on game<br />

day, be sure to use short, concise<br />

messages that cannot be<br />

misinterpreted. As a player<br />

gradually fatigues, their ability to<br />

analyse information decreases and<br />

words are processed into actions<br />

without double checking.<br />

To avoid confusion, make sure<br />

runners relay the message directly<br />

to the person concerned, or if that<br />

is not possible, to designated<br />

communicators e.g Hooker or<br />

halfback.
