Our coaching staff for the most part is amazing. Unfortunately, 1 of my main events, high jump, is run by an individual who is not so amazing. He comes to our practices and decides what we are doing on the fly, and just today we've asked for more structure from him, and I think it will go through something like this, the entire season through:
Jumps Tuesday/Thursday
*mostly bungee work, occassionally the crossbar is put up, depends on what the majority want*
3-6 backovers off a box
3-6 3-step approaches, scissor (with box)
3-6 3-step approaches, full jump over bungee (with box)
3-6 5-step approaches (with box)
3-6 full approaches
He concurrently coaches the pole vault at the opposite end of the track, so is often absent to provide feedback—> which is questionable at best anyhow.
What modifications do you recommend? We will be doing a short sprint work-out before every practice, and thankfully he is very flexible if we want to change things up (which is not necessarily good). Any suggestions or comments would be appreciated.
