Become a member of “The Science of Sport” community by joining with a small monthly pledge on Patreon — and be part of the conversation behind the conversation.Show notesIn this week's Spotlight, we open with a brisk roundup of major stories from the world of sport and policy. We look at new developments following the UK Supreme Court ruling on the Equality Act, including the first tangible policy response. We also revisit the resolution of the tragic ice hockey case involving manslaughter charges, and World Athletics' announcement of its “Ultimate Championship” event—an innovative idea, but not without flaws. Gareth raises some pointed criticisms about the competition format and the puzzling exclusion of key athletics disciplines.Next, we talk talent. The NFL Draft always offers a window into the world's most elaborate selection process—but also its inefficiencies. We reflect on how early selection often produces more busts than brilliance, yet remains largely unchanged due to structural inertia. A 14-year-old's blistering 35-ball century in the IPL leads us to discuss a surprising link between cricket scoring and endurance pacing, and how this informs the Duckworth-Lewis-Stern method.From there, we shift to the core topic of the episode: scientific integrity. Gareth reflects on our recent Spotlight's deep dive into how scientific papers are made, and our most recent feature podcast on the Boston Marathon and Mike's experiences testing Puma's new shoe. The conversation expands into questions of independence in scientific research and evidence, with specific reference to Puma's bold claim that their new shoe is “the fastest ever", and why that statement is, at best, premature. But we also give credit where it's due, praising the transparency and almost certain publication of the results of the brand's testing, as well as the researcher's realism about trust in their lab's research.And amid it all, Ross shares some personal news—stepping away from his School Academy High Performance and development role, while reflecting on missed opportunities and unrealized HP philosophies.LinksThe Scottish FA acts to protect women's footballAnd the English FA are, apparently, considering itThe case against ice hockey player Matt Petgrave is droppedAn analysis of draft picks that shows how high the proportion of "busts" isHere's a preprint of the Hoogkamer evaluation of the Puma supershoe - this is not peer-reviewed yet, but I strongly suspect that a peer reviewed version of this is on the horizonThe best community discussion you'll read on Supershoes, courtesy our Discourse members (Members only access - you know what to do!)

Don't miss our 4-2-3-1 Webinar on March 7th. Register Below: https://www.modernsoccercoach.com/product-page/msc-webinar-coaching-the-4-2-3-1-system-principles Last week there was a huge announcement in the world of youth soccer with the English FA confirming it as a game format next calendar year. So what does that mean for development? What will the landscape look like moving forward? How are coaches going to prepare for this? There is no one better equipped in world to talk about this topic than Peter Prickett. He has written extensively on this subject in his best-selling 3v3 Methodology books, as well as supporting coaches and working on the grass himself. In this week's MSC Podcast, we speak to Peter about the details of the announcement and look at ways that clubs and coaches can maximize this opportunity to make a difference in youth development.
The Inside Scoop with Anytime Soccer Training - Discussing Youth Soccer from Around the World
Hey everyone, it's Neil Crawford, host of The Inside Scoop and founder of Anytime Soccer Training. In this episode, I dive into a social media post that's been making the rounds on game formats and youth soccer development. But before getting into that, I introduce a term I'm coining for parents—tactical goals and tactical sequences—which describe patterns of play that reflect a team's game model.I break down why it's important to evaluate whether goals and sequences in matches align with what's being taught in training, rather than just relying on individual brilliance or defensive mistakes. I also share my thoughts on the recent move by the English FA to introduce 3v3 for U7s and why flexibility over format should be the focus of youth development.Most importantly, I emphasize why what happens Monday through Friday in training is far more important than the game format on the weekend—because no amount of 3v3, 7v7, or 11v11 can replace quality coaching, clear game models, and intentional development.Tune in as I unpack this topic, challenge common narratives, and advocate for a more thoughtful approach to youth soccer. Let's get better together!

Today's guest has seen all sides of football. First as a professional player, then the boss of the English FA, Mark Palios is now the owner of his own football team, the Tranmere Rovers. In a career that saw him stabilise the FA and save the Wembley Stadium build from crippling debt, this man is a testament to how wide-ranging a career in football can be if you just keep learning. From looking abroad to improve coaching and talent acquisition, to encouraging players to continue with education alongside their playing career, Mark Palios' view of academies and player pathways is a very different beast. He's doing things differently at Tranmere too, giving players not just one pathway into a life of football, but many. What a treat you have in store for you.

The Agents Angle - The World's Premier Football (Soccer) Agent Show
Whilst the EU are reported by some media outlets to have supported FIFA and their plans with the FFAR (FIFA Football Agent Regulations), 'The Agents Angle' examines why this is misleading - the implications of the reported actions of some at the European Commission have led to such actions being branded as 'cowardly'. On the topic of the European Commission 'report' on FFAR, our special guest is Gregor Reiter (EFAA Counsel and former MD and founder of the German Agents Association (DFVV)); with whom we examine the implications of the commissions observations on the current legal challenges, the history of EU involvement with football agent regulations and also pose the the prominet question that many are asking - "what is a 'link to Germany?'" . There are also reports of more agent regulation breaches by another English football club in the higher echelons of the English Premier League (EPL), this time Spurs (Tottenham Hotspur); but more surprising is the matter of it being approximately 15 years ago and reports of the English Football Association (The FA) 'doing nothing'. 'The Agents Angle' also takes a look at the topic of performance related bonuses for players and the implications of bonuses for clubs and agents. Whilst the question is also asked as to whether such bonuses are a 'double edged sword' and whether FFAR will see agents utilising performance bonuses in a different way.

We discuss the radical changes that the Premier League are proposing for the FA Cup, including selling the rights to the competition outside the United Kingdom — and what that means for the world's oldest football competition, and the impact on lower division sides.Also discussed are the similiarties between changes to FA Cup and US Open Cup, what the Premier League's motives may be in acquiring the rights, why the success of Wrexham may be a factor in the deal, and who has more power - the English FA or Premier League, and USSF or MLS.Last but not least, we share the details about Wrexham's streaming options for the 2023/24 season, and why fans of MLS seem to appear jealous anytime Wrexham AFC is mentioned.

It's the summer of 1992!The UK had accidentally voted in the Conservative government again but to make amends wins lots of medals at the Freddie and Monserrat Olympic Festival Sporting thingy in Barcelona, so everyone forgets for a while.Alan Shearer becomes the most expensive soccer star in the whole of history and the English FA celebrate their winning bid for Euro96 - spoiler, it still doesn't come home.And, AND, everyone was glued to the BBC's newest and sauciest soap opera Eldorado - what we all now recognise as the greatest TV turning point of the century. Must we throw this telly filth at our kids, said absolutely no-one.The new pop decade was coming of age as the third year of, what some called ‘the nineties' was providing yet another glittering array of….(checks notes)….erm, we're not really sure.But wait, this is not a problem! NOW, That's What I Call Music 22 was on hand and available in all formats to bring you 34 (yes, 34!) toppermost chartiest hits that would make sense of everything we needed to know!Coming at you like an overexcited ministerial briefing from Maastricht, every conceivable genre of music reminded you that there was indeed no genre whatsoever in 1992. Erasure dug up the Blue Peter-esque garden and found ABBA in a biscuit box, Utah Saints dug behind the sofa and found Kate Bush raving in a sweater, Electronic continued to be the best supergroup since forever and, ha, ‘disappointed' no-one (too cheesy, take this out in final draft) and whilst the Orb played chess on TOTP (checkmate, Alex!) a huge shoulderpad of serious adult rock from the likes of Cocker, Stigers and Marx was selling bucket loads of expensive CDs and trying their hardest to overshadow the pop kids (they'll never get away with it!).Join podcaster, writer and promoter Catrin Lowe as we head back to this crazy summer of 1992 to revisit the hits, headlines and otherwise that make up the gloriously non genre-specific volume 22 of the world famous NOW series!Along the way discover which band Catrin wrote a poem about on Teletext, how Turbo B infiltrated a fireworks display in Cheshire, which NOW22 act pretended to be farm animals on a recent TV talent show and why gravy is so important when considering your power ballad.To quote Simon Bates - 1992: Sexual Crusader or just a Big Girl's Blouse? You decide! Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.
Musa and Ryan begin by discussing the English FA's statement condemning discriminatory chanting and behaviour, after numerous examples of recent homophobic chants directed toward Chelsea players and fans (02:18), whether it is enough, and what the wider football community can do to stop such chants from happening. In Part 2, they round up some action from the Coppa Italia (16:53) and the Spanish Super Cup (23:38) before heaping praise on Southampton following their brilliant win over Manchester City (25:28), the rest of the Carabao Cup games, Lionel Messi's first game back for PSG, and more.

He was the performance director at the National Academy for England and has coached at three different county clubs: Sussex, Lancashire and now Head Coach at Nottingham County Cricket Club. Chris has been a sport psychologist for 14 years starting out as a sport psychology intern at the English Institute of Sport (EIS) under the guidance of Dr Pete Lindsay and Dr Mark Bawden. Chris has worked as the sport psychologist for Olympic Table Tennis, Paralympic Table Tennis, GB Boxing, the English FA, and cricket. Chris now works as an independent sport psychologist, spending most of his time between Nottinghamshire CCC and Wasps Rugby Team.

We discuss how Peter and Chris work together to create a psychologically informed environment that supports all players and staff.
Omar and Daniel talk on Twitter Spaces about: ⚽️ proposed changes to the English FA and League Cups;
Today we are joined by two guests: Dr. Fiona Crawford, a writer, editor, and researcher whose work engages with social, environmental, and sports. Dr. Crawford writes for a range of publications including Four Four Two and works frequently Football Australia. We are also joined by Dr. Lee McGowan, a researcher, writer and teacher working at the University of Sunshine Coast. Dr McGowan works on the intersections of sport, culture and community engagement. Together, they are the authors of Never Say Die: The Hundred-Year Overnight Success of Australian Women's Football (University of New South Wales Press, 2019). In our conversation, we discussed the booms and busts of women's football in Australia, “sliding door” moments that offered alternative possibilities for women's football, and the obstacles facing the contemporary women's game around the world. In Never Say Die, Crawford and McGowan both trace the history of women's football in Australia and offer a commentary on the state of the women's game today. The first three chapters chart the development of women's football, emerging earliest in Queensland before being hobbled by the actions of men in state federations. In this way, the rise and fall of the early Australian game mirrored history of the famous English FA ban of women's football. An Australian women's led football league re-emerged in the heady days of the 1960s and 1970s, when creative and hardworking people such as Pat O'Connor, Elaine Watson, and Heather Reid opened the way for an Australia wide women's competition. In 1974, female administrators and players organized the Australian Women's Soccer Association, which under the leadership of “quiet achieving ground breakers” built the foundations for women's football today. The following year they competed in the Asian Women's Championship, but never with the same financial support as the men's side. Of course, success brought new challenges and the Crawford Report (no relation) helped to subordinate women's football again under the national federation: Football Australia. The latter chapters of Never Say Die deal with contemporary challenges to the women's game including: the organization of the W-League, pay disputes between the women's national team and the federation, injury issues among women's footballers resulting from inadequate medical facilities and improper training, a dearth of female coaches, particularly at the top level, and the trajectory of the current Matildas. Crawford and McGowan's comments in these chapters are vital for understanding the issues in women's football today and have helped to shape public debate over issues such as pay disparities, an issue that has subsequently been addressed by Football Australia. In their work, Crawford and McGowan offer a compelling and rich account of women's football in Australia. Their work is informed not only by a deep dive into the archival resources, especially the popular press, but also by interviews with many former women's players, referees, coaches and administrators. Crawford and McGowan's very readable and timely book will be of interest to people broadly interested in sport, especially those with a focus on women's sport, but also to a public audience interested in the history of the Matildas before the 2023 Australian Women's World Cup. Keith Rathbone is a Senior Lecturer at Macquarie University in Sydney, Australia. He researches twentieth-century French social and cultural history. His book, entitled Sport and physical culture in Occupied France: Authoritarianism, agency, and everyday life, (Manchester University Press, 2022) examines physical education and sports in order to better understand civic life under the dual authoritarian systems of the German Occupation and the Vichy Regime.

To correct a few notes i comments i made in the Live event, Nathan was certified in 2013 and was 18 years old at the time. This young man inspires me and I'm thrilled to get to share his story.
