Habit patterns

Sports coaches and players try to get it right the first time but invariably end up spending a lot of time trying to correct technique faults and bad habits that somehow develop.

Once established, habit pattern errors like technique faults are notoriously hard to correct because they actually disable learning of correct technique and slow down or completely block improvement. This makes an athlete uncompetitive and can lead to a career-threatening performance slump.

The typical advice to practice skill drills and train hard is usually not very effective. The athlete may appear to improve during training but repeatedly falls back to old ways under pressure of competition.

Transfer of training from skills coaching sessions and practice drills to competition is consequently poor.

Transition training, required when the athlete has to change over to a new code, new equipment, new techniques or new rules, presents similar adjustment difficulties. Old habits die hard.

Fortunately, a coaching science discovery called Old Way New Way^® Sports Coaching offers:

1. A new perspective on the transfer of training problem.

2. A cost-effective and user-friendly method for rapid skill and technique correction, and habit correction.

3. A fast and practical method of sports transition training.

This page lists the sports corporations, sports coaching organisations, schools, colleges, universities, institutes of sport and small businesses who have purchased our Old Way New Way^® sports coaching courses.

Training options

Training in Old Way New Way^® Learning is available in an online course, either with or without email support, or in a training workshop for small groups.

Online course

Online courses are designed by professional educators and follow modern instructional design principles. The Flash based courses can be downloaded and are self-paced, interactive and self contained. Step by step instructions, examples and case studies teach you all about Old Way New Way^® Learning and how to apply it to a wide range of human performance problems in your sport. Courses include four video segments that show Old Way New Way being used in different sports. Online courses that come with with email support cost more but are tailor made and provide step by step solutions for your own selection of specific sport performance problems.

Workshop

The one-day training workshop provides face-to-face instruction and follow up support for small groups of practitioners, e.g., sports coaches, skills coaches, athletes and players.

How does the coaching CD ROM ordering process work?

Go to the secure online Order Form, and place your order. Your CD will be mailed to you when your payment has been processed, usually within 24 hours.

Is my credit card information secure?

Yes. Your information is encrypted so it is secure in transit. This is according to the international standards for secure credit card transactions. Just as importantly, though, your credit card information is secure once it reaches us. Although we do keep a record of who our customers are, so we can tell them about upgrades, we destroy credit card information so it does not remain on our computer. We also employ a secure firewall to protect your information during the short period that it resides on our computer.

I don't like the course, so how do I get a refund?

Go to the "legals" page link on each page of our website, where you will find a statement of our refund policy.

I don't have a credit card, so how do I place an order?

Customers outside Australia who do not want to use credit card can pay by International Bank Draft/Check. Other forms of payment are described on the Order Form.
