Marks back meaning I can now share my work 🤝. What a journey the last 2 years have been. Thank you @StirUni, @StephenMacCoach, @andykirkland71, Justine and others. Plus @APGreyMattersUK. Applying principles in my coaching practice tmr! How much are flights to Scotland? 🤔👨‍🎓

The ‘Why’ behind my writing I've decided to start a blog and can personally guarantee that it will: 1. Be about all things coaching ⚽💡 2. Not be written by AI 🤖❌ Can you tell I'm on school holidays!? 😅

@JimHaverstrom Same for adults 🙌🤝

@skillacqlascu @ausport YouTube famous! 👏

Although the authors ask for research, I found responding to the Qs they pose to CLA a helpful reflective task. Thinking a mentor/critical friend (knowledgeable other) would also assist. Again, not applied research, but my relatively uneducated thoughts ....

@singh_harjiv @Marianne_D1 @RobinOwenPsych @GottwaldVicky I am so excited for this book. I keep forgetting Ive preordered it and every time I remember I smile!

@JimHaverstrom I think so yes. One of the challenges I see is how highly 1:1 ‘skills’ coaching is perceived. When in reality it’s so decontextualised are you really training the same thing??

@transformbball SSG

@stu_arm On the ‘to-listen’ list!

@DanAbrahams77 Thanks Dan! Im a regular listener of the pods and have been for some time. Keep up the good work!

I cannot believe what I just experienced. I feel like we underestimate kids all the time. 🧠🤯 Some of the strategies 13yr olds just employed in response to this game: Underload - rotate goalie often for breaks - time waste Overload - in their face on D - spread for possession

@Mr_Tennis_Coach CLA 👏

How can you simultaneously support 2 very different teams (13As + 13Bs) in a way that’s appropriate and representative of the game? Not entirely sure, but we’re giving it a crack at Brisbane Grammar!

@DCGreyMattersUK What’s one of your favourite and I’ll look into it!

@DCGreyMattersUK I think so, however, for me you wouldn’t see me use it at training. Only for a minute or so prior to taking the field in an actual match (rugby 7s). Purpose is psychological. Perceived confidence immediately before kickoff.

@Brookes69Paul Believe 🖐️

@luke_robbo_nz I think cones as outside boundaries are more helpful than cones for everyone. That way the players coordinate where they are standing in relation to other people (at least in the middle). More appropriate for the game for me!

We’ve been incorporating pressure training within the @UQrugby Academy program this season. Lots of different ways players experience pressure. Cool to discuss and experience those. Psychological tools required too!
