I'm a first-year head coach getting ready to start the high school season. I assistant coached last year, and the girls seemed very receptive to my comments and made some amazing progress in a very short period of time (the head coach was pretty useless in terms of technique). In general, I'm feeling pretty confident in my abilities.
The one thing I'm concerned about though, is the floor. I have no idea how to tumble or coach tumbling on an unsprung floor. My main concern is jumping vs punching - which, or which combination is correct/best, and what is the best way to explain it?
