Part 2 : How to MASTER ChatGPT - to help Coaches & Clubs

rrussellsportspath

In our previous post on this subject here we proposed a simple 5 Step Guide - BRASS :


Brainstorm : Create a Problem Scenario and ask for possible solutions and ask more specific questions ( prompts ) than the previous one


Research : Ask a specific research questions


Analyse : Provide data in tabular form or by uploading an excel file. Ask for a simple analysis ( e.g. Strengths and Weaknesses) and a visual ( e.g. a graph )


Synthesise : Clarify what might be considered difficult problems


Summarise : Condense concepts into simple summaries


We also asked readers to share good practice with a simple 3 Question Survey here.

  1. Are you using ChatGPT?

  2. IF Yes - how are you using it ?

  3. If NO - how would you like to use it ?

( NB The Survey is still open and we would be grateful for continued responses !! )


Over 50 responses to date and a summary of the results would be as follows :


  1. Are you using ChatGPT? - To data roughly 50 % YES and 50% NO

  2. IF Yes - how are you using it ?


A lot of follow up information provided by respondents on HOW they were using ChatGPT including the following advice :


  • "Try Using it every day for research "

  • ""Can you help me understand the fundamental concepts of XYZ ?"

  • " Ask ChatGPT to role play as being a student ( or a player ) to ask me questions on a subject - great for anticipating questions !!"

  • "Can you draft a credible Parents Guide for our Club?"

  • " Create a storytelling video on the topic of SOCCER PARENTS ON THE SIDELINE "

  • Analyse Data : Uploading big data on a excel spreadsheet and asking to identify trends "e.g. Upload your Excel file to ChatGPT. Turn on Code Interpreter mode. Use the following prompt:Analyze the spreadsheet I've uploaded and generate charts to visualize the data. -NB Anonymise the Data

I tried two new prompts regarding the Relative Age Effect which were as follows :

  1. In our soccer club how can we manage to reduce the number of players dropping out with ' late birthdays ' ( as identified by the Relative Age Effect ) ?"

  2. Apply the Pareto Principle (80/20 Rule) to analyze our soccer club's decision to focus on players who are born late in the registration period - the Relative Age Effect Identify the critical 20% of factors that drive 80% of results, optimizing resource allocation."

The Results are here



Some advice on prompts from general sources :

  • The Concise Custom Instruction“Don't be too preachy in your responses. I already know you are an AI language model developed by OpenAI. In your responses, be direct and on point. Don't stretch sentences needlessly and cut down on fluff”

  • The Quiz prompt “Create a quiz on [insert topic] at the [Insert level} level with 20 questions and check my answers. At the end give me a grade from A-F and suggest ways I can improve”

  • For LinkedIn Profiles: “Can you help me craft a catchy headline for my LinkedIn profile that would help me get noticed by recruiters looking to fill a [job title] in [industry/field]? To get the attention of H.R. and recruiting managers, I need to make sure it showcases my qualifications and expertise effectively.”

  • StoryBot: "Act as StoryBot GPT. Storybot explains everything in the form of a story, even the most complex topics. For every question I ask you, respond with relevant examples, and analogies. Explain using world events and real life concepts”


FINALLY - CHECK THIS PAGE on TEACHING WITH AI



THE SIMPLE 3 Question Survey is still LIVE and OPEN here.

  1. Are you using ChatGPT?

  2. IF Yes - how are you using it ?

  3. If NO - how would you like to use it ?

we would be grateful for continued responses !

FA SOCCER STAR
In1988 after 3 years research the FA Soccer Star tests were  validated by Professor Tim Holt of Southampton University, England following extensive research with over 10,000 children. They had been proven to display over 90% reliability and over 90% validity in distinguishing between different levels of players.The outline of the tests are available and details in PDF form  here Download FA_Soccerstar_challenge

The book of the Programme is still available on Amazon  here . Over 1million children in over 50 countries went on to take the Soccer Star Challenge which involved 6 tests - dribbling, turning,speed slalom,heading, shooting and  running with the ball. It was intended as a ' fun' activity to motivate players to practise in their own time but there was an Talent ID aspect:- 

The Programme of tests produced a final score for the player on a 6 Level rating.Players achieving the highest ( 6 Star ) grading were recommended to their nearest licensed Academy ( previously known as ‘ Centre of Excellence ) Some of the England Full Internationals and England Under 21 players who have undertaken the Soccer Star Challenge and obtained the top six star grading are shown below ( including their age when they achievedthe Soccer Star 6 star rate and the team they went on to play for )

Michael Carrick (Manchester United) 10 years ,Michael Bridges (Leeds United) 11 years ,Matthew Upson (West HamUtd ) 10 years ,10 Jonathan Greening (West Bromwich Albion ) 10 years ,John Curtis Blackburn Rovers 11 years,Matthew Etherington ( West Ham Utd ) 10 years
