Watched this film the other day! Had me reflecting on my coaching… question to you all… Where are the boundaries to achieving excellence?

I've played 100s of matches in my life as a footballer. But there's one period in football which taught me the most. My time as a Academy player. Here's 5 Lessons that I learnt during this period...

Really worth listening to the whole podcast if you get chance , very informative ⚽️⚽️⚽️
. @stevensallis explains the moment he nearly cried 😢 when Millwall released 8 out of 9 U16s. When releasing players how often do staff look at themselves when a player doesn’t make the level? Steve asks the question of staff… maybe you are (staff) not good enough?

Just to reiterate … polite reminders. If you’ve got the quals … act like it. If you’re unsure what “x factor” teaching looks like. Get in a school. Zoom out of the football bubble. See what is going on in other places/educational environments. Be open. Change the game ❤️🙌🏻⚽️
