@PeterPrickett More small sided games on different surfaces . As accessible as possible

Which would develop better players? More games, less training? Fewer games, more training?

@TeleCricket @timwig Probably why it is the world's 2nd most popular sport!

✍️ 'Cricket is the world’s second most popular sport, yet it is a game in which the rules are adapted according to political expediency and flagrant commercial interests' | Writes @timwig Read the full column below 👇 telegraph.co.uk/cricket/2026/0…

@fhsperformance Brilliant discussion. Well done John and David, really interesting.

🎧 We discussed this research in detail on the podcast here: open.spotify.com/episode/19fYyN… Watch Here: youtu.be/wAJfoPrPD6g

Should youth GAA players be grouped by ability? Many clubs use “streaming” — dividing players into A, B or C teams. A recent study explored how players, parents and coaches experience streaming in youth Gaelic games. Here are some of the key findings 🧵

@efitzgibbon5 The same players playing in multiple t20 tournaments doesn't make sense. Should be rules on limits on number of teams you can play for in 1 season year / also x number of homegrown players on teams. I believe football has rules like this globally and locally and it helps it grow

We have to do everything we can to continue to grow this great game across the globe. So much potential.

@GlennMicallef @EuSport What percentage are successful each year ?

Applications for #Erasmus+ Sport increased by 33% this year, with 3,162 proposals submitted. Europe’s sport community is more engaged than ever. A clear signal of the growing demand and we must continue investing in it. Behind these proposals are clubs, volunteers and organisations working to promote inclusion and health through sport. Thank you! Grassroots sport in Europe is alive and thriving. @EuSport

@globrod Very good. Interested in the study if you can point me in right direction. Thanks

Game day One game sheet for the players. Study shows that printed paper helps to stay focus

@WorldHockeyNews Why a promotion pool instead of semi finals and final ?

@irishcricket1 Very good article 👍

@irishcricket1 Will definitely buy a copy

Be sure and get a copy of the Irish Mail on Sunday tomorrow, Double page spread by Ger Siggins as he presents a seven-point plan to save Irish cricket.

It says it in the first response to this, but it is a lie from NFL to say there isn’t a difference in injuries from 4G to grass. FIFA did this lie too. Ya the rate of injuries are ball park same. However the severity is way different. Much more ACL’s and ankle ruptures on 4G. Time out is a better barometer. And it’s even arguable and possible time spent on 4G leads to the grass injuries as well. It’s important to mention some of the injuries on grass can be triggered by changing surfaces too dramatically. So you train hard 2-3 times a week on 4G, but get injured on grass on Sunday, it’s highly likely the extra fatigue (4G costs more energy to run around on and especially worse to change direction on) will contribute to injury risk an change in surfaces too dramatically may actually cause it.

@seatsixtyone I've read your blog and follow you . Really good. Thank you. Have been on trains recently in Germany, Belgium mainly. Would you recommend few days rail trip anywhere in Central/ North West Europe to dip my toe in, budget sensitive ?

Rail holiday to Europe by train? (1) Discount code SEAT61OFF gets £61 off a Byway holiday booked before 31 March, travel any time. byway.travel/?utm_source=se…... (2) Free 1st class upgrade on some trips if booked by 26 March - panel at the top of Byway home page has the details.

The ICC 3-year residency rule actually holds them (and other GCC countries) back by removing the need to develop home-grown players, which was predictable from the outset. It strengthens them on the pitch in the short-term, but that’s not a long-term strategy. ICC development funding should have to be spent on development programmes.

@DavidPiesing63 @Prithvi10_ This every day of the week. Same logic applies to clubs the world over in lots of sports Why do Athletic Bilbao have such good youth development for example as they need it , no easy short term option available to them per club rules...

UAE has world class cricket infrastructure with 3 quality intl stadiums. The ICC is based there, and many ICC owned grounds and academies are located in the country. It is also a wealthy nation with no shortage of expatriates from the subcontinent, and it now has its own professional league as well. Given that they have been playing in ICC events since 1996, they should have been a much stronger side by now

Why don't national hockey associations do much more of this? Men and Women double header International fixtures. Something which most other teams sports are reluctant / unable to do.

@nathanrjohns Need to practise fielding outdoors preferably under lights as well

Granted, this includes tough c&b chances, plus Delany trodding on the rope but Ireland have now dropped 10 catches in two matches at this World Cup
