- About Mentoring for Coaches
Mentoring will support and manage the important key elements needed to maximise potential, and develop a strong skillset, improve performance and become the foundation for career progression.
“Hi Gareth,
I wanted to express my sincere gratitude for your invaluable mentorship and support these past months on the Tennis court. Your dedication to sharing your Tennis knowledge has impacted my skills and understanding of the game. Thank you again for your time and commitment”. DK.
One thing that differentiates mentoring from coaching is the timescale. Mentoring relationships tend to be longer term. With a mentor, you’re getting someone who’s already walked in your shoes. They are experienced in your field and can help fast-track you along your growth path, can offer guidance and support and save having to go through a steep learning curve by using their insight to provide you with foresight and information about Training and Resources, Programme Planning, Benchmarks, Structure, Outcomes, Marketing and Financials
About Coach-Mentor Support for Players
The Benefits of a Coach-Mentor; how can they support you as a player?
Whether you opt for coaching or mentoring, or both, they can in their own ways have the following benefits; helping to learn new skills or enhance current skills, maximising personal potential while also contributing to increased confidence and skillset.
“Hi Gareth,
Thank you very much indeed for all the superb coaching. I really appreciate all of your help and advice. You have made an enormous difference to my Tennis; Thank you so much.” RT.
Getting an outside perspective can be beneficial with an external view of your situation and address issues that may not be instantly apparent to you, enabling you to progress and achieve. When you have the accountability of a mentor or coach, you may push harder to reach your goals and are more likely to stay focused and achieve greater success.
A Coach-Mentor can help you stay positive and motivated, so you can keep moving forward. This is achieved through open impartial discussions and feedback within a trusted and confidential relationship.
