1. Know what you are talking about and be precise
Field hockey is a complex sport, and if your don’t know what you are talking about, you will be exposed. A common mistake is when a coach is not well informed and/or over explains his ideas. When a coach goes over and over on the same point but with different words, he or she, can get the team to a state of confusion and lethargy.
