PLANNING TO WIN
Georgina Roberts explains how to make a plan for success, and stick to it!
Georgina Roberts is an athlete, ambassador, and the youngest coach in British Shooting. She is also the first woman to captain the Welsh OTR team.
C lay shooters should take heed of the aphorism credited to Benjamin Franklin: ‘By failing to prepare you are preparing to fail.’ Time is precious, so we need to use it wisely. I’ve been told many times that training without purpose is just turning live ammunition into empty cases. Shooting is an expensive sport, so making use of a plan can get the most out of your training sessions and utilise the opportunities that you have.
Plans are brilliant for organising the thoughts and ideas of you or your coach, and making note of which activities and drills you can utilise in order to develop your shooting and help you work towards your goals. Depending on you and how you choose to use it, a plan can be as simple as an outline or as detailed and data driven as you wish to make it.
