In today's episode David Charlton and his colleague Adam Batstone emphasised the importance of psychological support in football and sport coaching with children.  They particularly acknowledged the need to foster rapport with parents to address their concerns about disclosing their child's challenges.   David and Adam highlighted the need for adaptability in coaching methods, especially for neurodivergent children, who may require more personalised approaches.  They discussed strategies like framing sessions, providing clear routines, and using non-confrontational prompts to maintain engagement.  The conversation also touched on the significance of life skills development beyond football, noting that coaches can help children build resilience and emotional flexibility, crucial for their future success in various fields. Key Learning Points: ·         Seek to explore ways to incorporate more flexibility and adaptability in training sessions to better accommodate neurodivergent players. ·         Develop strategies to build trust with parents, encouraging them to openly share information about their child's needs. ·         Provide training for coaches on recognizing and supporting neurodivergent behaviours, and implementing effective intervention techniques. ·         Investigate the feasibility of creating designated "safe spaces" within the training environment for players to self-regulate when needed. ·         Factor in the psychological planning of training sessions to consider the emotional responses of players. ·         Utilise additional coaching resources to provide one-on-one support for players who may need it during sessions.

Send us a textThis week, I sit down with my friend and mental preparation expert, Vincent Maltz, to explore a powerful and often misunderstood phenomenon in high-performance sport: how pressure can derail both individuals and teams.When pressure mounts, it can trigger a threat response in the brain, activating neurological and psychological patterns rooted in fear. The result? Fight, flight, or freeze. For individual athletes, it shows up as choking, the yips, or “squeezing the stick.” For teams, it's that haunting feeling when they just don't show up.We dig into the underlying mechanisms behind these moments, and what it takes to build athletes and teams who can face fear, step into it, and perform.It's a fascinating conversation with a brilliant mind. I really enjoyed it—and I think you will too.

My name is Lyndon Fraser. I am a circus artist originally from New York, but now I'm in Montreal training in acro-ladder. I've always loved flipping, twisting, and pushing myself to become the best version of me. My circus journey started when I was 15, but at 16, I made the big decision to move away from home to pursue it full-time. It's been a long and challenging road, but one that has taught me patience (lots and lots of it), physical discipline, relentless drive, and how to find the best in every moment. Training acro-ladder, in particular, has been a lesson in persistence. After all, you can't get mad at a ladder—only at yourself. I'm incredibly excited to be here with you all today, and I hope this inspires you to step outside your comfort zone and try something that scares you. That's where the magic happens.

The fight-or-flight reflex is always lurking just below the surface. When things get sufficiently stressful, our hormonal system dumps enormous amounts of adrenaline into our bloodstream, and—BOOM—suddenly we're ready for action. That adrenaline serves a purpose: it elevates your heart rate, makes you much stronger, more pain tolerant, and able to ignore injury. If you ever have to lift a car off a child, you don't want to be calm. Instead, you want to be mad, scared, enraged—whatever it takes to get into that adrenaline-soaked state of high arousal to lift the damn car with your bare hands. But that superhuman strength comes at a cost; as adrenaline floods your system, you lose a significant amount of fine motor control and higher brain function. Take whatever IQ you started with and cut it in half.
