    Demonstration is an important coaching tool that requires careful planning and execution. Coaches should ensure players can clearly see and hear demonstrations. When demonstrating skills, coaches should keep explanations brief, avoid pointing out mistakes, and break skills into components while also showing the full skill. Coaches should use other players as demonstrators when possible and allow time for practice after demonstrations. Observation of both individuals and the team is critical for coaching, and questioning is more effective than simply telling players what to do.
