Clear communication when coaching is key. Letting players know that this is for your benefit, it is not to trip you up or to be used as a weapon against you is one of the most powerful messages to get across. Coaching is all about nuance and eliminating problems before they happen. This approach of a presentation, introducing a new system and why is a quick and easy way to get player buy in.
