Thank you @AVFCFoundation, I’m over the moon! Villa Park - nestled neighbour of Aston park - the highlight of my frequent, otherwise tiresome, travels. I take great pride in admiring it’s majestic presence, enhanced by twinkling snow over the weekend! Looking forward to Sunday!

🤩 Thank you, that’s a lovely Monday surprise! I sincerely wish you & your wife all the best, great cause to raise awareness for! Have dipped into the brilliant resources you generously make available for other coaches, appreciate the support 🙌

Buzzing that I had an opportunity to deliver at the home of football 🥰, thanks Vicky, you are too kind & I wouldn’t have the confidence to do this without amazing support from yourself! – at Birmingham, England

Fancy helping develop & facilitate football in East Birmingham …?? We are growing in numbers & we try not to turn kids of any or no ability away from playing football in a safe & engaging environment, but we need help! Please get in touch if you are interested 😎 – at Birmingham, England

Enjoyed an intense few days on Block 1 of #UEFAB - focusing on the individual! Great coach developers & fab info on phases of play, pitch geography, linking it all back to the 11v11 game & not forgetting the technical detail! Inspired & looking fwd to getting on the grass. – at Birmingham, England

Thank you to my fabulous mentor @Martinh1472 -appreciate your advice, looking fwd to continuing my journey with your input, having guided me from Playmaker to UEFA B candidate! Special shoutout to @StaceyMiless , @BCFAWG & @Matt_Jones7 too for their time, encouragement &support

I feel responsible 😭 I watched most of it 🫣🫠 - I had hoped that we would equalise during the bit I missed. On a brighter note I skipped the Villa game & we won convincingly 😬

A fantastic day @GFCC23, amazing insights from all the speakers, from neuroscience to periodisation of fitness, delivered with humour, eloquence & passion. Great to network & catch up with the footballing family! What a time to be a football coach 😎 @SueySmith @sallyneed3

Fantastic news @Shevs_20, thoroughly well deserved & a massive inspiration for female coach development! Wish you all the best in your new role, will be eagerly following your journey 😎👊🏼

Fantastic 1st competitive season for all our teams- proud of all our players, especially the dedication shown by our u13s; front footed, hungry for the ball, gelled & supported each other & played to their strengths. A joy to coach & watch their development over the months 😎

Honoured to have attended this as your guest, loved every minute, very well organised & fab atmosphere! Well done to you all - getting this final at a Premier League ground is a testament to the upwards trajectory 😎🤩

If your team don’t have the ball - you’re all ‘defenders’ working to win it back…agree with below, blocking a shot/preventing an opportunity is as important as creating & scoring. Some of our attackers have moved in2 defence, preferring to impact the game there & value the role

Collab with Coach Ash who motivated me years ago, generously gave up his time to help deliver a ‘Defending the Box’ session: positioning, units, who/when to press etc great learning for our bumper group of 28 players & me! Continuing the journey @Screenhouse_TV @BBCTheOneShow

Privileged to have a mentor of this calibre & positivity, always encouraging & supportive, along with huge support from @BCFAWG , @StaceyMiless, @Matt_Jones7, @BC_CoachesClub, inspired by @sturge_p & facilitated by my club @B_Impact_FC who see me for who I am, a football lover 😎

Looking forward to this tonight - thank you for bringing our journeys to light! Bursting with pride to see some of our players being given airtime too 😎

Lifelong love for football channelled into this - a whisper of belief from my son’s school coach years ago & a glimpse of @CoachAnnieZ on the BBC - I saw it & I became it 😎 - I have since had so much support on this wonderful journey. Thank you to everyone! #IWD2023

Brilliant day yday watching the Lionesses. Thank you @FA @Shevs_20 & @c_rob_8 for inviting us to a Tactical Observation focusing on Transition (D/A); so much to pick up - strategy, opposition, formations, individual capability etc. Lots to take back & adapt for grassroots level.

Happy 2nd anniversary #SundayShare
