This week's guest is one of the most exciting talents in Women's rugby and she's got strong roots right here in Sussex.  Jess Breach grew up in Chichester, picked up a rugby ball at just six years old and hasn't looked back since. From sprint hurdling to netball, hockey to gymnastics, Jess was a standout athlete long before she pulled on an England shirt. She burst onto the international scene in jaw-dropping style, scoring six tries on her England debut and five more in her second game, a record few can match.  She's now got her eyes firmly on the 2025 Women's Rugby World Cup, with the AMEX set to host three matches, including England v Australia.  In this episode, we talk home town pride, international rugby and what it means to see women's sport take centre stage right here in Sussex.

That's when he met Tony Reno. He said about the meeting, “Not many things materially affect my trajectory. But this time was different. What was different? Coach Reno.” The goal of the program: “Leave the jersey better than you found it.”  The team creed, a pledge written by players on Team 142 (the 2014 squad), as they do at the start of every practice: “I vow to believe in the process, I am mentally and physically tough, I compete with passion and overcome any challenges. I stand tall alongside my family at all times, I challenge my brother, believe in him, hold him accountable. As I create my own path I always put team before myself, I strive for excellence on and off the field, I hold myself to a higher standard. I am a Yale football player.” Standards - Every player must recite the creed. The younger players are coached by the older players. The brick tradition - At each practice, one player presents his brick, then adds it to the others in the tunnel-- a visual reminder of the team's solidarity. Reno instituted the tradition to build camaraderie through candid reflection. Hero, Hometown, Hardship, Highlight. Someone who has impacted you. One word for the season. His players went to bat for him. On December 28, Casey Gerald '09, a cornerback, and 63 other former players sent a letter endorsing Coach Reno's candidacy to athletic director Tom Beckett, and later to president Richard Levin and provost Peter Salovey. 12 days later, he earned the job. Gettysburg Retreat: Yale's football team takes an annual retreat to Gettysburg with McChrystal to focus on leadership, bonding, and team culture. Presidential Leadership - Lead people, but don't do it for them. When his players host recruits, they will tell Coach Reno if their character aligns with being a Yale football player.  Coach Reno names a player of the day for each practice. The one who lives out their values and the Yale football player creed. Life/Career advice - Help you become the best version of yourself in all you do. Make you an elite leader. Maximize you as a football player. Help you find your passion.

Teachhoops.com⁠ Coaching is a demanding profession no matter where you hang your whistle, but stepping onto the sidelines in a small town presents a unique set of challenges and rewards that are often overlooked. Unlike their big-city counterparts, small-town coaches aren't just strategizing plays or developing athletes; they're often pillars of the community, mentors, role models, and sometimes, even impromptu therapists for their players and their families. This episode takes a deep dive into the multifaceted world of coaching in close-knit communities, exploring the distinct pressures and triumphs that come with the territory. We'll unpack the unique dynamics that characterize small-town coaching. This includes the blurred lines between personal and professional life, where every victory and defeat is often a community-wide event, and where the players you coach might also be your neighbors, the children of your friends, or even your own relatives. We'll discuss the intense scrutiny that often accompanies the role, where everyone has an opinion on your coaching decisions, and where the local newspaper or coffee shop gossip can be as influential as the state championship. Furthermore, we'll explore the challenges of limited resources, from smaller budgets and fewer assistant coaches to the struggle of attracting and retaining talented athletes when the talent pool is inherently smaller. Beyond the challenges, we'll also highlight the profound sense of connection and impact that makes small-town coaching so rewarding. We'll hear stories of coaches who have shaped generations, built enduring community pride, and fostered a sense of belonging that extends far beyond the playing field. From managing parent expectations and community pressure to developing well-rounded individuals with limited facilities, join us as we explore the heart and hustle of coaching in a small town, and the unique ways these dedicated individuals navigate their vital role in the fabric of their communities. ⁠WintheSeason.com⁠ ⁠Dr Dish Website⁠ ⁠CoachingYouthHoops.com⁠ ⁠https://forms.gle/kQ8zyxgfqwUA3ChU7⁠ ⁠Coach Collins Coaching Store⁠ Learn more about your ad choices.

Moore explains why it was so important for him to move his family back to his hometown, population 300, and the things he may have missed as an artist living there.

In the fall of 1984, fear took hold of San Jose, California. In just six weeks, six young women vanished or were found murdered — their lives cut short under brutal and mysterious circumstances. As residents watched the headlines mount, few could imagine the horror hiding in plain sight. Six Weeks of Terror is a gripping true crime story that unravels the chilling timeline of Fernando Cota — a convicted rapist who slipped through the cracks and went on to terrorize a city. A routine traffic stop would crack the case wide open and lead to a horrifying discovery.
