Mentorship Hours: Vanna White will direct you to the link on the right hand side of my blog.Interpretive:
Through my mentorship, the most valuable thing I have gained would have to be my use of networking. Of course, I learned a multitude of things about soccer and goalkeeping more specifically, but the networking aspect has been invaluable. Through finding a Summer mentor, interview subjects, and other goalkeepers to talk to, I have learned the skill of networking. I know how to get in touch with individuals I've never met before and subsequently ask them for more resources. These people, especially my 3rd Interviewee, Janet Cassidy, have given me opportunities to meet many new people that may end up helping my coaching when I'm older.
Applied:
Independent Component is what gave me the answers, and mentorship showed me the details of all my answers. These details were acquired through numerous hours of coaching and watching the game. For instance, "...being psychologically prepared" was given a backbone when I helped the Girls Under 14 team's goalkeeper get past a major mistake. "...having tactical awareness" was further explained by the mistakes that the goalkeepers made and were pointed out by my mentor, Kim Nemeth. "...having strong technical ability" was shown through the training with both the Under-14 and Under-16 girls teams. I watched the technical abilities of the goalkeepers skyrocket while Kim and I were training them, identifying what worked and what didn't.
