What is a Cheertalk?

A Cheertalk session consists of two parts. In the first part, a guest speaker will share their expertise with you. In the second part, you will work in smaller groups to discuss cases and find solutions. There will also be time to ask specific questions to each other or to our guest speaker.

Content of the first session

The first session will cover: "What makes an effective cheer coach?"

Together, we will explore effective and ineffective behaviors in a (high-performance) sports context, how to create an ideal learning environment, and how to optimally support your athletes. We will discuss the specific challenges that cheer coaches face and provide tools to tackle them.
