*Ciara Grogan Players are regularly summoned to alleys/ball walls to improve their kicking/striking technique. Unfortunately, most deliberate practice occurs with little coaching or without a framework to develop technical proficiency. This principle, summarized by P-FACTS, can be implemented when practicing isolated skills to aid players.
Clare’s 53rd hurling All Star award was also arguably its most inevitable as Tony Kelly’s scintillating 2020 championship performances ensured his inclusion on the team of the year for the 50th anniversary of the prestigious PWC GAA/GPA All Stars.
This week, Mark O’Donnell advises coaches how to tailor feedback and in turn maximise the retention of young sportspeople.
Tony Kelly has been named as a 2020 All Star off the back of one of his greatest years in the Clare jersey.
Tony Kelly is on the shortlist for Hurler of the Year while he is one of four Clare men nominated for All Stars.
