Thought I'd start today with four "truths" I've learnt - and believe - (that only get me into trouble when I say them). 1. SPORTING FEDERATIONS - do not make sport better. That can only be done by people - "a rising tide lifts all the boats". All the best things happen in sport

My personal statement on Vinesh Phogat’s disqualification: Vinesh and the entire team that worked with her are devastated with the disqualification from the Paris Olympics. I have tried to answer some questions that have been asked to me since yesterday morning.

Dear Vinesh, It is said that sport is a celebration of human will. I have known that to be true many times in my career but never has it resonated more than today. As I look around me, I see a nation

Vinesh Phogat hearing at 9:30pm IST time. 4 lawyers from Paris representing her. You may not get a verdict today and the case may drag on. Keeping that in mind the team backing Vinesh is trying to get a few Indian legal minds involved in the case for subsequent hearings.

I was another conference this week about increasing participation in #sport. I listened to a lot of theories, saw Academics present research about what their data says, watched the ubiquitous "this is what they do in Scandinavia and we should all do the same" presentation. Some

B teams don't work. Player pathways don't work. Many players go backwards not forwards at a crucial point in their development. Nothing changes until teams are mandated to field a % of academy graduates in every domestic game

A mandated academy pathway not only benefits individual players, it benefits national teams who will have better players plus clubs will have greater x £'s of assets on the pitch - it would also diminish the power of the dominant one or two teams in a league

PARENTS: Pay attention to the banners at your kid's sporting events and the ads inside the programs. Support these local businesses because they're supporting your kids!
