Success is helping people to take up squash as a sport for life, where they can strive for improvement and play with enjoyment, whilst developing determination, perseverance and resilience at the same time. We aim to achieve this whilst striving to create an environment where the moral values of honesty, loyalty and respect are encouraged and expected.
A key aim of ours is to find new ways to teach and develop skills, so that every client learns as quickly as possible. Finding new methods to become more effective as coaches is vital to our approach.
We ensure that each player works at an appropriate level for their ability, so that everyone can achieve success. We do this by encouraging players to set "Personal Bests" and beat themselves, as well as others.
In our sessions, the needs and wants of the player are our primary consideration. We encourage athletes to take ownership of their learning, to develop leadership, independence and decision-making.
We focus on providing our players with positive feedback not negative, because we want our players to focus on the way it should feel. We also value and praise effort over talent, to encourage our players to reach their potential.
At Squashdynamics, our players are allowed to make choices and decisions over their squash. We do this by encouraging players to set their own goals, and take ownership of both their practise and matchplay.
This method helps players develop problem solving in a game context. Games are modified by adapting either the scoring or rules, the playing area or the restrictions on the player.
