"Who is to say what is right or wrong in coaching?" What does that even mean? We have all seen really bad coaches, decent coaches, pretty good coaches, and excellent coaches. There are VERY specific things that differentiate them. I coach teenage soccer. There are things that many coaches do that I would say put them in the "really bad" category. For example, they spend their time in practice doing inane drills with cones and then yell at the kids on game day for not doing things that they never practiced.

We've been looking for a more dramatic intro! Appreciate your feedback and we will definitely take it into consideration

Sion repeats that the coach must question himself what behaviors he expects from himself and in his sessions so that this can be evaluated, for instance, by using video. This evaluation should allow the coach to get closer to what HE thinks good coaching is. However, if what the coach considers to be good coaching is actually not good coaching then Sion is just helping the coach to be the best he can be within the coache's flawed idea of coaching. Sion would help to create the best possible version of an inherently bad coaching approach. Good coaching is not the same as better bad coaching. Sion is so vague that the interview was not too helpful. I am more interested in his idea of good coaching and WHY this coaching is used in his context. To me, that's the point of long interviews.
