Part 2/6:
As articulated by one player, recognition of that “last 10%” that cannot be quantified by mere numbers is critical. This nuanced aspect is deeply rooted in human instinct and emotional intelligence. The player highlights the daily check-ins from their coach, Mendy, underlining a profound understanding that players are not machines, but human beings with a range of experiences that affect their performance—be it illness, lack of sleep from travel, or emotional fluctuations. This approach ensures that the coach knows when to push players towards their limits and when to ease off, fostering a culture that acknowledges and respects individual well-being.
