When childrens sport becomes overly competitive, it becomes exclusive

When it becomes exclusive, it becomes less inclusive

When it becomes less inclusive, we see less children playing

And that's the dropout

Our role, keep as many as possible involved for as long as possible

[Shane O'Hanlon @ShaneO_Hanlon]

Super session this morning with the Wexford District Hub in @StPetersWexford
Worked on striking touch & footwork in the alleys with @tonybennett00 & some core agility & reactions with @MonahanAl
Very impressive level of skill all round

[Coaching the Coaches @coachingcoach_]

"I have learned that connecting with people is the cornerstone of good coaching...regularly, I’ve had players say ‘I think we could do that a little bit differently, I think we could do that a little bit better'. You’ll always engage and encourage that"

Robbed one of my old GK drills for the warm up this morning with @cs_gaa .. Working on reactions, handling and good first touch. There’s so much good work you can do against a wall 👌🏐 #wallball #gaa #coaching

Tough conditions underfoot for the autograph hunters but brilliant to see the players staying out in the rain to sign the hurls and jerseys.

"Only you are responsible for the way you treat others." Laura's opening link on her radio show today. Words have more potency & power than you'll ever realise and will linger long long long after you've forgotten you even said them. This much I know. Sending love @thewhitmore ❤️

[Shane O'Hanlon @ShaneO_Hanlon]

The pitch in @ChadwicksIE Wexford Park has passed an early morning pitch inspection and today’s Senior hurling fixture against @KilkennyCLG goes ahead as scheduled.

[Shane O'Hanlon @ShaneO_Hanlon]

Indoor/wall ball hurling warm up;

Ball each
Striking off the wall
Get through a gate in the middle
Strike off a different wall

Dynamic stretch in between
Vary the striking- low, high, flick,

Focus on footwork, using your steps, strike on the move & touch

[Seamus Byrne @Seamus_byrne1]

Storm who??
Didn't stop the 30+ young men from the Gorey hurling hub, thanks to all the parents, to Castletown GAA and to Billy Byrne for a great session this morning, see you during the week lads

[Barry Leacy @barry_leacy]

#StormDenis didn't get in the way of the #modelacademy Wexford hub this morning. Over 40 boys in @StPetersWexford training hard and working on their first touch and striking.

You can't coach the first touch but you can create an environment to develop it 👏💜💛 #wexfordhurling

Most children DONT like at training:

Too much competition
Long warm ups
Team captains
Said captains picking teams
Coach talking too much
Said coach shouting
Confusing drills
Too few footballs
Team talks
Queing
Large sided games
1 dominant player
Insufficient play
Favouritism
