About Me

Bit about me

I am a dad of 2 boys and 1 girl and a Level 1 football coach.  I started playing football at the age of 7, and like every young boy, had dreams of pulling on a shirt for my favourite club.  This never happened, and during the latter years of playing, I played for fun and quit playing competitively after several injuries.

Life generally goes in this order (although 2 and 3 are inter-changeable!!)

1. Family
2. Work
3. Football
4. Other sport

How the blog started

In 2010, I volunteered to "help out" with my sons football team, Ecclesall Rangers, as they set up their u8s.  I started this blog towards the end of my 3rd season coaching.  Although there is a lot of session plans and coaches blogs, many of which I get my training ideas, I found it hard to find day-to-day views of coaches.  Hopefully, this is where my blog comes in.  It is a means of recording my thoughts and give an insight to others either currently involved with or thinking of coaching.
