Description

In our new episode, Chris O'Hare, our first guest in the podcast, alongside Gus Poyet, Steven and Mariano, explores the intricate blend of sports psychology and coaching for youth football development. This in-depth discussion illuminates how a coach's adeptness in fusing psychological acumen with training methodologies can significantly enhance both individual player progression and overall team synergy from U16 u18 to first-team football

The episode unpacks pivotal topics like the importance of cultivating players' mental resolve, balancing technical skill enhancement with fostering individual flair, and the nuanced role of mentorship in youth football. Our dialogue aims to offer listeners—be they passionate fans or discerning coaches—a deeper comprehension of the essential role that psychological insight plays in shaping young athletes, contributing to team triumphs, and influencing the beautiful game as we experience it.

This is no regular academy; it is a place where all parties engage in dialogue about football, to know more about football, to enjoy football. Once a week, we talk about the how's, the what's and the why’s with fans and professionals who want to dig deep into football knowledge, express their views and come to understand that in football, as in life, all things happen for a reason… In our first season, we talk with a manager, Gus Poyet to explore the ins and outs of being a football manager, what’s important, what they see and how this affects the teams.
