Quality afternoon behind the scenes with @Cardiff_Pathway U18s vs RGC.
Credit to @JoshTurn6ull, @CalumDigby and team - well-aimed motivational messages and clear instructions bringing about a much-improved 2nd half performance to make it 3/3 in the block🫡
Next up: Scarlets🔴
Over the bridge for some CPD yesterday - helpful insights from others working in rugby to support my own Coach Development practice 🏉🧠
Refreshing to see such an open learning environment - expertly coordinated by @hharryjjones - Diolch, @gloucesterrugby 👍🏻

Back at @Cardiff_Rugby this evening 🏉 Good to see @CalumDigby continuing to develop his skills💪🏻
Hugely promising seeing coaches like Calum being given opportunities to take on roles and responsibilities that challenge and enhance their practice.
Da iawn @Cardiff_Pathway👏🏻

Probably my favourite episode to record this past week - so much fun talking to Alex about CRiC, coach ed, and coaching experiences 😁
Alex has a unique presentation style too - can’t wait to see it on a full episode! 🤩

I loved how honestly Sarah spoke about the loneliness of doing work like hers, particularly when exploring concepts that are sometimes mind bending at best! 🧠
Another great experience hearing about great research coming out of @CRiC_SCR 👌🏻
#SportCoaching #CRiC2025
Technology in sport as a gendered concept - really eye opening! 🧠
Huge thanks to @ATjonndal for sparing us some time at a busy @CRiC_SCR conference to share her work and experiences 👏🏻

Episode 2 of our bitesize CRiC series is out now!
In this episode, we welcome Dr. Anne Tjenndal from Nord University.
@ATjonndal shares her experiences at @CRiC_SCR and discusses how applying a gender lens to technological innovation can impact sports coaching.
Really enjoyed recording these bitesize episodes for the @CRiC_SCR 7th Internstional Conference (what a great one to kick off with too btw!) 🎉
Luke was happy to share his developing research interests with us, but also shared what makes CRiC so special 🤝
#SportCoaching
It’s the first episode of our very special series of bitesize episodes with @CRiC_SCR attendees!
@drjoneshull (University of Bath), took us to his newfound research interest in exploring the overlap between fatherhood and coaching.
We hope you enjoy!

Returning to an old paper, we discussed the key messages and what’s changed in the past 20 years.
Really enjoyed recording this episode! Go give it a listen 🎧

Final episode of the season with Prof Jones 🫡
A trip down memory lane to revisit a paper from 2007, with messages that still resonate almost 20 years later.
