🏈 for all

Currently a Britball fan

[Mark Weaver @CoachWeave86]

After being at the conference today. My days as a fan are numbered. I think I need to start coaching again

[Mark Weaver @CoachWeave86]

I love Britball I really do. However Britball I think has it out for me. Over the years I've moved on from clubs for development and the opportunity but it has always ended the same way with drama and ego. So I've decided to step away from coaching for the 2026 season

[Mark Weaver @CoachWeave86]

I was at @BlkCtrySteelers Vs @StaffsSurge

Great game and great facilities. Quality plays and intensity across the board

[Mark Weaver @CoachWeave86]

@coachDbutler I was there and still don't believe it

[Mark Weaver @CoachWeave86]

@CoachBMarshall So true

[Mark Weaver @CoachWeave86]

If it does what I want it to do which is raise the quality of the play in the seemingly former div 2 teams I'm all for it.

If it just creates whipping boys for each division I can't see it being sustainable as teams will just struggle to get players.

[David Butler @coachDbutler]

Not a fan mark?? No judgment here my man.. let it out

[Mark Weaver @CoachWeave86]

Interesting choice here. Some teams are gonna have a bad time next year

Big shake ups in the League alignments have been proposed by BAFA for the 2026 Adult season.

[Mark Weaver @CoachWeave86]

@coachDbutler Thanks Coach I know I'll be back in 2027. I know once I see games next season the itch will come back

[Mark Weaver @CoachWeave86]

I fully intend on returning to the sport in some capacity in the future once the love for the game returns.

[Mark Weaver @CoachWeave86]

I fully plan on attending as many games as possible and get the love and passion for the game back.

[Mark Weaver @CoachWeave86]

@CoachJBRob learnt so much from you this weekend thanks for sessions

[Mark Weaver @CoachWeave86]

They never tell you that the step up form positional coach to coordinator is actually a giant step #britball #americanfootball

Always learning and when you think you have it down a new adjustment or concept is introduced and the learning process resets

[Mark Weaver @CoachWeave86]

I mean we all want the sport to grow and flourish here in the UK right?

This tribalism where you can't even interact with another team without being questioned needs to stop in my opinion.

My mantra: Grow your team, Grow the sport, Help other clubs. #growthegame #britball

[Mark Weaver @CoachWeave86]

I was talking to a player at an old club of mine. He asked why am I sharing other teams recruitment days on my social media?

Why is there a rampant us or them culture seemingly in our sport? On the field I get it but off the field we should all be supporting each other right?

[Mark Weaver @CoachWeave86]

Can't be there because of family reasons but the stream is great

#britball #div2final

2024 can't come soon enough

[Mark Weaver @CoachWeave86]

Back at this game on Sunday but this time it's playoff action. If it's half as entertaining as the last game it will be an awesome afternoon

[Mark Weaver @CoachWeave86]

I watched @StaffsSurge against @LeighMinersAFC yesterday. It was back and forth all game. Great defence and offense by both sides and until deep in the 4th it could have gone either way. I think both teams are in the #playoffs now and throughly deserve it
