497 Followers 492 Following The official source for Queen’s Sports | Editor: @JTR_3 Ass. Editor: Alina Yusufzai | Interested in writing? Hot tip? [email protected]I’ve had 3-4 head coach calls per day for the last two years. Along the way, I’ve kept a roughshod tally of the central topic of those ~2200 conversations. Top 5: 1. Organizational dynamics (staff) 2. Prolonged losing 3. Disruptive player/s 4. Team selection 5. Personal energy
Thoughts HAPPEN to you Emotions HAPPEN to you Feelings HAPPEN to you Yet play on! Focus on the most important cues in your playing environment and keep anticipating…irrespective of your internal experiences Or If need be, engage in self-talk…talk yourself through the moment
Maybe someone needs to write a book about caring for coaches. Thoughts? 👀
Interesting interview w/ Klopp, clearly triggered by comment about kick off ⏱️ Highlights the immense pressure coaches can be placed under; working until 1am 2am, relentless schedule, caring for players & wider coaching team So, who cares for the coach?
You wouldn't believe the strides I see head coaches make simply by having someone around them that genuinely believes in them.
Last series of tweets before I go back to work tomorrow. Four areas High Performers manage well 1. Manage mindset- how will you show up every day 2. Manage focus- what's important 3. Manage structure- use of time 4. Manage improvement- how are you going to get better?
Any update on finding him??
Coaching by challenging players in defence with worst case scenarios. Different scrum movement and cards to create uneven teams to see how they solve problems under pressure with limited time 🟨. @MeralomaRugby

I was more than happy to write a ringing endorsement of @JpNerbun’s book — The Culture System. Culture is a difficult subject to bring new life to, but J.P. has nailed it.

A year ago, my path changed. I started specializing in coaching head coaches. It’s still a new and developing discipline that’s finding where it fits, but I’m determined to keep sharing what I see so we can shape better environments for head coaches.
If you're wondering what's next from me... The response to The Tough Stuff has proven to me that head coaches need better support. I believe I have something to offer. 🖥️: codyroyle.com
Some lessons I've learned: 1/ At the pro level, most organizations aren't ready for my role to be internal. The best fit for right now is to be an external resource that brings an outside perspective into the environment. (This will change in time, like other disciplines).
2/ I initially thought a structured 'course' would be the best way to work with coaches, but this has proven wrong. My best work has been in-person, in-the-moment, responsive & contextual decision-making with the coach. The job is too volatile to not deal in the here & now.
3/ What I got right was that coaches already have the magic inside them, they just need someone to create space for it to come out in a productive fashion. My job is to make each coach the best version of what they want to be, not some mini-version of me.
4/ No two head coaches are alike. They all need completely unique coaching based on their unique personal and professional circumstances right now.
5/ People are far more shitty to head coaches than I imagined, even after writing the book. The things that are said, the utter lack of respect, the undercutting, the text messages sent by higher-ups...it's unfathomable at times.
6/ I learn far more from the coaches I work with than they learn from me. I also have my own coaching panel, people like @NeilCraig07, @pjsteinfort, @GT3Coaching, @darrenburgess25, @rob_mason12 (and others) to sharpen ideas with me. The sounding board has a sounding board!
7/ It's bloody brilliant seeing a coach's eyes light up when they get out onto the grass and get to be around their team. I thought I'd miss that element of coaching my own team, but now I receive that joy through seeing the coaches faces. Bloody! Brilliant!
Does academia need to change its language for coaches. Or is it more the case that we need more coach developers to help coaches translate academic research to become useful in their context. #dailypodcastthought
