From Dealing With Unstructured Teams to Working as a United Team: AOC Sport’s Coaching Journey
Case Study with Will Hughes
"The whole experience of team coaching was just right for our team. We did work together previously; however, now we really work effectively together and are clear on the role and the impact that we can have on the system."
At a Glance
Move More Newark & Sherwood are a place-based team that has been formed through the collaboration of various organisations. The aim is to enable local communities to overcome shared challenges such as physical inactivity by greater collaboration and connectivity across the district. Active Notts, the county’s Active Partnership, plays a key role in bringing together different organisations and improve physical activity of their respective communities.
The Challenge
As a place-based team, their challenges were:
-
