A great session to be part of & some interesting/thought provoking comments & questions from CDs to help us to develop this work further. Hoping the ‘dials’ concept is of value to practitioners - whether coaches, CDs or both. Thanks @Martin_Dighton, @Marianne_D1 & @_UKCoaching.
Great session yesterday with coach developers on the role (and balance) of challenge and support. Thanks to @Martin_Dighton and @Marianne_D1 for the invitation to join @_UKCoaching Coach Development Conversations. Looking forward to seeing where this conversation continues!

Fantastic to share the @playtheirway #voicechoicejourney philosophy with our @NottmTrentUni @NTUSportScience 1st year cohort of Sport Science & Coaching students yesterday. Sits perfectly with our coverage of FMS & coaching children. The future is bright 👌

& still nothing a further 48 hours on! Incredibly poor @Purplebricks_CS @PurplebricksUK ☹️.
@petepjh Hi Pete, we're sorry to hear that you've not yet received this. Would you mind sending us a DM so that we can gather a few contact details and get this chased up for you? Thank you kindly.

@PurplebricksUK in case you’ve not noticed, it’s now November. It shouldn’t take 5-6 weeks & 5 attempts at contact to pay out in response to an escalated complaint. 😳 🤷.

Hey @Ryan_Hubbard - I’ve just finished your fantastic 🇵🇱 football book - loved it. Especially the political/social history aspect & how the ⚽️ was situated in the bigger picture of Polish life at various points in time. Thanks for going to the trouble of writing it. 👏👌

Great to get our @NottmTrentUni - @playtheirway coach development pilot up & running last night through @NTUSportScience. 12 of our 14 child-first coaches in attendance, a nice communal atmosphere, stacks of pizza & actions on #voicechoicejourney. A great start. 👌 #playtheirway

Yet another fantastic listen from @emmahayes1 🙌 with @GabbyLogan & @markchapman: the value of a personal coach alongside her, the human connection aspect of coaching that’s often forgotten & the diverse range of challenges women continue to face in sport.

Thrilled to share the news that we’ve been successful with this @playtheirway tender ⬇️ here at @NottmTrentUni @NTUSportScience @NTUSport. We’ll be working with a number of local partners to help to develop more child-friendly coaches over the coming year. Great end to the week👌.
Delighted to share that @nottmtrentuni is taking part in our coach engagement pilot!. "PTW is a fantastic movement in encouraging coaches to work in a genuinely child-friendly way, so to have the opportunity to have our coaching students front and centre, was too good to miss" 👏
