@DrSkillAcq @power_ray @KevinMcGreskin @brizzos @petenowakowski @nickmammone @DirCoach @CoachSeve @davewright07 @gmurphycoaching @Coach_Drew_T @aksumfootball @ShakeyWaits Thank you for such pleasing feedback. I have recommended podcasts you have appeared on many times as well. Always something to learn from listening to you speak. Although you don't sound like them listening to you always reminds me of my cousins still in Ireland.

@SeanDArcy66 @power_ray @KevinMcGreskin @brizzos @petenowakowski @nickmammone @DirCoach @CoachSeve @davewright07 @gmurphycoaching @Coach_Drew_T @aksumfootball @ShakeyWaits Great work Sean - fair play to you. I have directed many people to your videos over the years and the feedback is always the same: it's always easy to follow and easy to try themselves in training. Keep up the great work!!

Slight change to the way exercise starts & we encourage the development of good scanning habits @power_ray @KevinMcGreskin @brizzos @petenowakowski @DrSkillAcq @nickmammone @DirCoach @CoachSeve @davewright07 @gmurphycoaching @Coach_Drew_T @aksumfootball @ShakeyWaits

To answer a few messages in one go. The same method can be used in shooting exercises. The shooter has to scan between ball, closing defender and GK position not be able to see all w/out scanning as ball served from next to goal by defender who then closes them down. Good luck.

@DirCoach @power_ray @KevinMcGreskin @brizzos @petenowakowski @DrSkillAcq @nickmammone @CoachSeve @davewright07 @gmurphycoaching @Coach_Drew_T @aksumfootball @ShakeyWaits We call scanning ‘gathering information’ which is same as you.

@SeanDArcy66 @power_ray @KevinMcGreskin @brizzos @DrSkillAcq @nickmammone @DirCoach @CoachSeve @davewright07 @gmurphycoaching @Coach_Drew_T @aksumfootball @ShakeyWaits "See the ball, and see where you want to go" Got to love a game realistic start to action to start a practice to encourage players to observe - analyses - execute. Quality message, Sean, as always 👏

@SeanDArcy66 @power_ray @KevinMcGreskin @brizzos @petenowakowski @DrSkillAcq @nickmammone @DirCoach @CoachSeve @davewright07 @gmurphycoaching @Coach_Drew_T @aksumfootball @ShakeyWaits Superb! I’ll use this to change the angle and perhaps even timing of the initial pass to begin a 2v1 and 3v2 overlap exercise we often work on. Thanks!

Not only does this allow for more scanning, in fact, only a small percentage of all 1v1s are head on, practice facing pressure from behind and from the sides aswell!

When your dad pays $60 per hour for elite private training three times a week to run around cones, and then you face a real defender in your first game.

@petenowakowski @power_ray @KevinMcGreskin @brizzos @DrSkillAcq @nickmammone @DirCoach @CoachSeve @davewright07 @gmurphycoaching @Coach_Drew_T @aksumfootball @ShakeyWaits Superb. If we don’t affect this the players do seem to slip into repeating the same length/type of pass multiple times. Hope all is well with you.

@SeanDArcy66 @power_ray @KevinMcGreskin @brizzos @DrSkillAcq @nickmammone @DirCoach @CoachSeve @davewright07 @gmurphycoaching @Coach_Drew_T @aksumfootball @ShakeyWaits Great suggestion, Sean! I've found simply saying, "can you make your passes look like the real game?" Another lightbulb to get the players thinking. Sometimes short passes, longer passes, aerial passes, different control techniques, mobility around the pitch from support player.

One sentence transforms a technical exercise completely involving scanning, positioning & decision making @power_ray @KevinMcGreskin @brizzos @petenowakowski @DrSkillAcq @nickmammone @DirCoach @CoachSeve @davewright07 @gmurphycoaching @Coach_Drew_T @aksumfootball @ShakeyWaits

@movementcoachkm Spot on.

It’s mad that this needs saying. The idea that you can lose fitness or skill in a week is everywhere. Repetition is seen as a keep safe, and it’s nonsense. I’ve seen “good hurlers” come back after 5-10 years and play a game. Within 15 mins they more or less have their “touch” back. Yet people want kids playing the one sport all year thinking it gets them better. And/or the notion that missing a session or a week is damaging - it’s probably a help. What about Johnny Sexton playing very little rugby and reaching a world class level in 1st game back? Or numerous hurlers, soccer or Gaelic Footballers who come back from ACL and are very quickly BETTER than before the injury. Why? They got injured from overload, but the enforced rest regulates their nervous system.🤷🏽‍♂️ This reaches all the way down to kids. Once they can strike a ball they have largely developed that action capability and coordination- move on. Challenge further. You don’t need to repeat striking drills for the next 12 years. Take a break, and chill out parents and coaches. instagram.com/reel/Cz4jpJhPW…

***PLEASE SHARE*** This is a survey for people to share with anyone at all who has interacted with Development Squads in Gaelic games and for players to fill out. Katie and Aoife are 2 young TY students from Monaghan who are investigating the impact on Mental Health of Development squads for young talented athletes in Gaelic Games. Help them with their research. They are entered into the Young Scientists Competition, an achievement in itself to get accepted. Please share with everyone you know who you know was involved in recent times with a development squad, or has a child involved. And of course if development coaches and County Boards could share with their participants also that would be great. The more players who contribute the better the analysis. docs.google.com/forms/d/1doPDU…

@McClementsinOz Can’t see Dalglish’s autobiography there. What are you teaching these kids. They should be reading the classics……

I absolutely love #BookWeek fun! Reading books galore, costume parades, Book Fair and this year, the Challis Book drive. Thanks to so many donations from local libraries, schools and the community, we sent home over 900 students with 5 books each of their own choosing! 📚 📖 ❤️
