Prepare a useful conversation with the coach

Prepare two or three specific observations and questions. Ask what the player can work on, how progress will be recognized and when you should check in again.

A scheduled, calm discussion makes it easier to separate a development question from a misunderstanding about the team’s expectations.

What to do next

• Ask for a suitable time to talk.
• Agree one actionable next step and a follow-up point.
