Paying attention to the cohesive whole.
Whenever players and coaches are asked about how they won a close game, they nearly always say how they connected as a cohesive whole. Yet, little attention is given to training the ability to sustain a cohesive whole.
_______________
To avoid limiting performance to simply trying harder to execute the parts, we should set aside time to train the ability to sustain a cohesive whole. To recall the childlike joy of connecting as a whole without an algorithm directing us. Connect to experience something greater than the sum of the parts. To embody Gestalt. Experience what is beautiful, true, and good. To embody the full human experience.
________________________
We build an awareness of the whole from seeing the connections between all parts. We shape this whole, so new opportunities emerge as current ones dwindle. Two of the most effective activities for training this are basketball and swimming.

About the event
We use basketball to coach a new way of thinking space and timing that applies across all sports, education and work.
By learning a new way of thinking space and timing athletes of all sports see what they can’t yet see. That once seen - they wonder why they didn’t see it before - a Wow moment
Players create space and time to beat players more athletic than themselves.
Players who lack the athletic ability to get into club squads learn how to get more space and timing to better execute fundamentals - to get into squads.
Players are more able to think outside the box and not fear failure.
Players who are less academically motivated - learn how to see what they can't yet see - to achieve a level of success - beyond their academic abilities.
