Seeing today’s news on coaches advocating their influence on players journeying…if you’re prepared to celebrate the “successes” and take the plaudits in public, we also need to accept our perceived failures in public spaces too…or keep your mouth shut in both instances…🤷‍♂️😮‍💨

100% of UK academy coaches say perceptual-cognitive skills are important for development. 3% say they're "very familiar" with them. 63% have never had a single hour of PCS-specific education. And then people wonder why we don't have more players who are great decision makers. This is a system problem, not a few coaches falling short. (Triggs et al., 10, March 2026. Frontiers in Psychology)

Great to see that over 3 years since it was released ‘Essential Practices for Player Development’ still supporting coaches across the world. Currently No.7 in the U.S Amazon Charts (Soccer Coaching) if you’ve yet to check it out please have a look ⬇️⬇️⬇️ amazon.co.uk/Essential-Prac…

Ecological Football- not just to know more (knowledge about) but to know better (knowledge of). Young players should be active agents in their learning, not just passive executors of pre-defined responses or mere receivers of knowledge. footblogball.wordpress.com/2025/10/24/eco…
