Loved being part of this conversation about coaching, leading youth players, striving to grow and serve others, and mental health.

Coaches in our country have a platform and responsibility to teach their athletes that they have innate value and dignity that are neither defined nor limited by their race, color, creed, gender, sexual orientation, or resources. positivecoach.org/the-pca-bl…

✍ Foppe de Haan's @AjaxCapeTown were a lovely team to watch in the 2010-11 PSL season.
They finished second & although it ended in heartbreak, many of the clubs’ supporters & local fans look back on that squad with love.
@grantdesmidt tells the story.

Dear Coaches: PLEASE watch this. Your work matters. Bless the Mr. Pigden’s among us. 👍
On #InternationalTeachersDay I wanted to share this clip of Ian Wright talking about an inspiring teacher.
It's incredibly moving - you'll want to watch it until the end.

We can only learn from failure through:
1. Reflection
2. Claiming responsibility
3. Taking action
If we follow the above three steps, it is not failure at all - but a lesson.
It is life

Important to always remember when working in sport that success can be quickly followed with failure - you see real character in those that handle both with similar humility

The art of coaching is NOT about peace, love and warm/fuzzy feelings. It’s about an improved understanding of human behavior & is a part of well-rounded coach development. Our job is to manage stress & alter behavior. So we should be studying BOTH!

Do I use GPS..yes. Do I use wellness questionnaires...yes. Where do I get my most valuable information? When I interact/speak to my athletes
