A still useful framework for coach decision making. The sort of knowledge that underpins “It depends”! Happy to do a webinar on this if sufficient interest. Also CPD for coaches. Just contact us at [email protected] Happy reading

Really sorry but this sort of thing annoys me. As a parent, teacher, coach and psychologist. Banning all parents reflects a failure to work with them. Why not just sell and set high standards then enforce them. IME other parents support logical child-centred guidelines

For all those interested in talent, parents coaches athletes and managers. This book with ⁦@AineGreyMatters⁩ might be of interest.

Our work suggests that lifestyle is the essential fifth. Not as provided by Institutes but rather how well the athlete manages his or her life outside sport. Failure to attend properly to this will result in a collapsed building,let alone the table!:)

Time to empower players and trim bloated backroom teams thetimes.co.uk/article/time-t…. If you think “psychologists tell you what to think” Stuart you’ve been talking to some rather poor ones!
