The non negotiable’s of football & all team sport are that players run, make tackles & be competitive.
We will support & nurture technique of all abilities but we will not accept, poor attendance, behaviour, not running & working hard for the team.

This is a fantastic video, some takeaways:
⚽️Coaches are human
🪞Potter is incredibly aware of his own emotions & skilful at managing them

We prioritise player development especially at the younger non competitive age groups. We will rotate playing positions and give fair playing time based on attendance and behaviour.

I stood by today and listened to parents slate the coaches' approach to substitutions, berate some weaker players, and question why they were allowed to stay on whilst better players came off. Why were they playing in different positions? Why do they
