Training Future Champions
I recently did a staff training session at Young Ones Nursery in Cullompton,showing them how to use equipment that I gave them for their toddlers and pre school kids.
I needn’t have worried too much as the staff have a great understanding of letting kids learn and discover through play. In fact, aspiring S&C coaches would do well to work in this area to gain a knowledge of incremental learning and adaptation rather than “Death by Olympic Lifting”.

I always ask young coaches what their ambition is and often it is “to work with elite athletes” which I think is funny. Their ambition is not to become a great coach, or to help others, it is to bask in the reflected glory of other people’s achievements.
Working with these highly motivated and professional nursery staff, and seeing the joy on the childrens’ faces was much more rewarding than dealing with overpaid footballers or rugby players who have forgotten about fun and athleticism.
