FBP Definition of CREATIVITY
All valid solutions that player is able to discover by himself, without coach’s guidelines
BOOST THE CREATIVITY
THINKING
Relaxing, disconnecting and giving freedom to our mind we generate ideas that help in the search of new solutions
DREAMING
Just before falling asleep is the perfect time to remove the chains of the brain and let it make absurd associations that can lead us to brilliant ideas
PERSPECTIVE
Being able to get out of our everyday reality and see the things with another approach, another plane, another reality opens the way for our imagination
Get a creative person in your life
One of the easiest ways to learn is by IMITATION. All habits are transferable. A creative person in a work group sends information about his/her particular way of doing things to the rest, constantly.
The same happens inside a team, when you have a player who does extraordinary things, over time, you’ll realize that the rest of players begin to imitate.
Example
HAVING AN EXTRAORDINARY PASSER
If we had to choose a learning method for FBP Project, it would be Guided Discovery. We provide players with tools and then they decide how to apply them.
This idea is expanded from our way to PRACTICE specific things up to our way of PLAYING, offensive and defensively
Our players must be able to
-
Process a lot of information
-
Search for instant solutions
-
Choosse the right decision
-
CREATE NEW ACCURATE SOLUTIONS

IMPROVISATION

We DEMAND our players to improvise
Some players may feel PANIC about improvisation because they don’t know how to play without following strict guidelines
* Never done it before
* Don’t know how to decide by themselves
* Don’t know how to find new solutions

* How to teach to improvise progressively
* Give the player some margin for mistakes
* Don’t let the player to bury into frustration
