Could not agree more with all of these.

1: You’ll be judged by people who know the least. The loudest critics often sit farthest from the process. They don’t see practice. They don’t know the kids. They just watch the scoreboard. Thick skin isn’t optional. It’s survival.

Still one of my favourites. Aged to perfection. Patience paying off. @BoschendalWines do you still make this blend? Can only get Shiraz in UK supermarkets for the last couple of years but not the blend 🤞🏼

What a game today. Moved our match v @TeddingtonHC to @woodbridgesch (thank you so much for saving the day) And secured a 1-0 win on the final play. Cracking PC finish from Tay. So proud of this group & of course Danger Mouse & MR @Rixie1 @DonnaMills1 @IpswichHC @BBCSuffolk

#Sportingparents......STOP packing your kids sports bags. STOP emptying their sports bags and washing their wet, dirty training gear. STOP cleaning their boots. STOP hanging up their wet towels. STOP packing their competition day bags, making their snacks and filling their water bottles. Just STOP! I know why you do it - you love your kids - I get it - I've got four kids myself. But - STOP doing stuff for them. As #coaches we need them to be independent, self-responsible and to accept accountability for what they do and don't do. That's what they really need from you - to help them to become INDEPENDENT. youtu.be/_MZzckODIsY?si=GcLb…

#Sportingparents - please listen to me. There is no such thing as a champion 7 year old. There are no world class 8 year olds. 10 year old elite athletes do not exist. Physical talent is overrated. Character, values and unconditional love - now that's "talent". youtu.be/nJdK48nRDB0
