Performance coaches work one on one with clients to provide personalized advice and training. In this activity, grab a partner! You and your partner will be taking turns analyzing each other’s performance in the classic game of cornhole!
STEP 1: Find a partner, some bean bags, and a cornhole board. If you don’t have a cornhole board, cut a wide whole in a stiff piece of cardboard or make an outline of a 12in diameter circle with tape on the floor.
STEP 2: Let your partner play the game first. The goal of cornhole is to toss the beanbag into the board hole. Have your partner throw at least three beanbags. As they throw, watch them closely. Notice their stance, tossing technique, arc of throw, release point, etc.
STEP 3: Be a performance coach! Based on your observations, what is the ONE thing they need to improve most? Tell your partner what he/she can do to improve in a friendly, supportive way like good coaches do!
STEP 3: Have your partner throw 3 more times. Do they improve when they follow your advice?
STEP 4: Switch! Now you will be the player and your partner will be the performance coach.
STEP 5: Keep practicing and coaching each other to improve. Post a video of you getting it in the cornhole 3/3 times in the Student Showcase for chance to win $20!
