To help us learn about you, you’re going to film 3 short videos of yourself answering the questions below. These videos can be filmed however you would like. The only requirement (other than answering the questions below) is to have your face in the video.

As a Tread Performance Coach, what separates you from the rest of the industry is your ability to solve athletes’ problems and communicate the solutions clearly and concisely, helping them improve faster than ever before.
To help us understand your ability to do this, the last part of your application is to submit a video of you breaking down a Tread Athlete.
The video you submit should meet the following criteria:
• You will use the linked videos above to complete your breakdown
• Your submitted video is 6 minutes or less
• The submitted video will contain the athletes video and includes–at a minimum–you doing a voiceover
• Within the breakdown, you identified the 3 most pressing issue(s) in their delivery.
• For all issues mentioned, you’ve given 1 specific drill, adjustments, or cue you would give this athlete to help fix those.
• Note: Please complete this breakdown as if you are talking to the athlete, not to the hiring team at Tread.
It is highly recommended that you review the athlete’s movement assessment to help showcase your ability to connect the dots between findings in the screen and movement deficiencies in the pitching delivery.
Effective breakdowns will combine technical knowledge with the intangible “feel” that makes coaches great. Have fun!
