Grateful for the opportunity to present a 2+ hour Coach Education presentation to 30 coaches from North Gold Coast Seahawks Basketball on ‘Season Preparation and Implementing Habits’. I received wonderful and humbling email feedback from one of their female coaches in attendance the following day 🙏

Success takes longer than you expect, then happens faster than you can imagine.

AFL clubs excel at building a sense of belonging, making athletes feel valued and part of something bigger. Creating that feeling of "the real deal" at any level is key. #SportsPsychology #AFL #CultureMatters

Really enjoyed this one ! Grateful for the opportunity to talk all things coaching with Justin Clymo on the Contacts Coaching Podcast - 🎤 podcasts.apple.com/au/podcast/con…

Coaches, condition the learning environment: say things once, at room volume. The premium on message quality rises when repetition falls. #leadership #communication #teamwork

It's about more than just the game. Whether it's sports or academics, teaching leadership and teamwork should always be front of mind. It's about coaching people, not just players. #Leadership #Teamwork

How to unlock team leadership? Create space for organic growth, and don't repeat points. Instead, ask guiding questions. Acknowledge leadership when it emerges. #Leadership #Teamwork #Leadership #Teamwork

Unlock your coaching potential! Discover "transferrable truths" across sports by immersing yourself in diverse coaching styles. The evolution of any field doesn't lie within itself. #CoachingTips #SportsPsychology #CoachingTips #SportsPsychology

Looking for an edge? The evolution of your game might NOT be in your game. Unlock new strategies by studying how other sports handle invasion and scoring. Think soccer, football, hockey… #SportsStrategy #Innovation

To avoid being a carbon copy, it's about finding what's authentic within oneself. Compete to win, even in practice. Show humility, but compete at a high level—that's the arena. #motivation #mindset

When working with athletes or revered coaches, knowledge is key, but being trustworthy is the foundation. Reliability and consistency display that, according to one expert. #mentorship #leadership #mentorship #leadership

Stepping up can trigger imposter syndrome, but coaches often have what it takes to lead, even with more experienced players. It's about trusting the journey and your skills. Ever feel like this? #leadership #impostersyndrome

Surrounding yourself with smarter people is key. One coach reflects on lessons learned from working with the best, tracing his basketball journey back to his family's sporting roots. #Basketball #Coaching #Basketball #Coaching

Star players often get checked on *least* because of assumptions they're "okay." But ignoring them can be a huge miss. Who's truly getting the support they need? #Leadership #Teamwork

AFL is "wild"—but can its chaos translate to hoops? With its uncoachable skills, is there anything basketball can actually learn? Seen any transferable skills? #AFL #Basketball #AFL #Basketball

Coaching is both art and science. One must balance sports science with the skills of motivating people and understanding learning styles. It's not just about plays; it's about people. #Leadership #Coaching

The "golden question" every coach faces: How do you get players to listen? Mike Dunlop's answer wasn't what anyone expected, but it's stuck with people ever since. #basketball #coaching #basketball #coaching

Was it really a basketball workout if you didn’t have a social media team there ? -a dozen or more still photos - alot of smiles, laughs and fun drills. - video to music - talk to the camera or videographer while working out. -numerous people standing around. It’s too much

The fastest way to become appropriately confident is to become dangerously competent.

Stay Authentic.
