In Unit 2 of the AQA specification, students who choose the leader/coach option are required to analyse, modify and refine the core skills and technique of a performer in isolation and within structured practice conditions (non-competitive and competitive). In doing so, the leader/coach is expected to plan and coordinate and may lead sessions to demonstrate these skills. He/she must ensure that participants are safe and using recognised techniques while implementing strategies and tactics to maximise the strengths of performers involved in the session.
In fulfilling the criteria, leaders/coaches will benefit from understanding various skill acquisition factors that help to explain how performance can be improved.
