Don Argus report - GENERAL
• POOR PERFORMANCE BY THE
LEADING PLAYERS
• POOR BASIC SKILLS GENERALLY
• A REACTIVE COACHING STRUCTURE
RATHER THAN A PROACTICE ONE
Don Argus report - GENERAL
• BEST PRACTICE TRANSFER IS NOT EMBEDDED IN AUSTRALIAN CRICKET
• DO ALL YOUR PLAYERS SEEK THE BEST METHOD FROM EACH OTHER AND
IMPLEMENT THAT INTO THEIR OWN PLAY?

3. PROCESS &
UNDERSTANDING
Above the Shoulders The VOICE
What is success?
HOW WILL A PLAYER IMPROVE?
KNOWING WHO/WHAT YOU ARE AS A CRICKETER – EG FIELDING
1. CAN I CATCH?
2. DO I WATCH THE BALL?
3. CAN I BEND DOWN?
4. AM I A SPECIALIST ANYWHERE? IF NOT, WHY NOT?
5. CAN I CONCENTRATE IN THE FIELD?
6. AM I ENERGETIC IN THE FIELD?
7. DO I WANT THE BALL TO COME TO ME?
5 ACTION STEPS TO MY BEST YEAR EVER
1. KNOWING WHAT ADJUSTMENTS WILL MAKE A DIFFERENCE
2. CORRECTLY PLANNING TO IMPLEMENT THOSE ADJUSTMENTS
3. IMPLEMENTING THOSE ADJUSTMENTS
4. STICKING TO THOSE PLANS AND DRILLS (ADJUSTMENTS)
5. REVIEWING THE IMPLEMENTATION OF THOSE ADJUSTMENTS
PROCESS V EMOTION
END PERFORMANCE
THE ULTIMATE ENJOYMENT
PRESSURE
There is no rocket science here. In round 1 a team wins and a team loses. In the Grand Final a team wins and a team loses. The only difference is how badly the players want the outcome to go their way and how much this influences their ability to think about the job at hand.
Concentrate on the skill execution required.
Michael Hussey appears to me to be one of the very best performers across multiple forms of the game and in big moments. His next action is always a reflection of what the teams needs that ball.
RESPONSE TO FAILING NOT PERFORMING AT THE LEVEL YOU EXPECT IS HARD TO DEAL WITH. NOT
PERFORMING AT THE LEVEL OTHERS EXPECT IS HARDER AGAIN.
IT IS USUASL FOR PLAYERS TO RUSH PERFORMANCE / SUCCESS WHEN THIS FEELING HITS. NORMALLY THIS MEANS HURRYING TOWARDS ANOTHER MEDIOCE PERFORMANCE
MY ADVICE IS TO WATCH THE BALL. ANYTHING YOU KNOW ABOUT PLAYING THE GAME WILL HAVE A CHANCE TO COME OUT. THINKING ABOUT TECHNIQUE PLACES YOUR KEY RESPONSE DOWN THE QUEUE.
IF YOU ATTEMPT TO PLAY THE WAY THE TEAM NEEDS YOU TO THEY WILL RESPECT YOUR EFFORT. IF THEY DON’T .. GET A NEW TEAM!
WATCH THE BALL
