Stop running the same drills. Start developing more skillful athletes.
If your sessions look the same every week, you’re not alone. Many coaches feel stuck because:
✘ They know skill acquisition matters but can’t apply it in practice.
✘ They repeat drills without proof they work in real games.
✘ They struggle to design sessions that build decision-making under pressure.
✘ They lack examples, feedback, and mentorship to evolve.
The good news? With the right approach, you can coach with clarity, confidence, and methods that develop skills that transfer to competition.
The Constraints Collective was founded by a group of coaches, researchers, and practitioners who have spent decades working at the intersection of theory and practice in sport.
With over 50 years’ combined experience, we’ve helped coaches and organisations apply skill acquisition principles from grassroots to elite performance. We’ve worked in academies, governing bodies, universities, and coach education—always focused on showing how learning really works and how to design environments that support it.
We saw a problem: coaches were getting more theory than ever, but without the tools to apply it. The result? Frustration, confusion, and missed opportunities for player growth.
That’s why we started The Constraints Collective, to bridge the gap between research and real-world coaching. We’ve lived the challenges and now share practical frameworks, mentorship, and consultancy that transform how coaches think, plan, and deliver. No buzzwords. No fluff. Just skill acquisition that makes sense and makes a difference.

MEMBER TESTIMONIALS
"The Constraints Collective is an outstanding community of coaches, and the guidance from Martyn, Ian, and Keith is consistently practical and supportive.
What stands out most is how they make complex ideas approachable. These concepts can feel overwhelming at first, but they never overcomplicate things. They understand both coaches and coaching, and that balance makes the learning experience not only valuable but also enjoyable."
- Marco Perazzo, 4th Degree Black Belt, Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu Owner, New Jersey Martial Arts
"The Constraints Collective is a fantastic global community with common interests in learning and growth.
The humility and modesty among the members is such that it's easy to forget you're mixing with top academics and coaches operating at the highest levels in sport."
- Jordan Stead
"I am delighted with my decision to participate in the Constraints Collective community.
The valuable insights from the growing library of presentations, articles, and community discussions are well worth the commitment. I highly recommend to anyone who is interested in coaching and skill learning both theoretically and practically."

"The discussion and engagement from The Constraints Collective and the collaboration of like-minded thinkers has been instrumental in helping to focus my efforts.
