Absolutely buzzing to say I passed my level 2 assessment today! Massive thanks to Alex Watson & @Martin_Dighton #GreatCourse

@daisysimms Morning Daisy. Can you follow me so I can DM you please? Got a couple of questions if possible. Thanks!

[Harrison Dunks @Coach_Harrison1]

@alexbone86 If we must!

[Harrison Dunks @Coach_Harrison1]

Almost like first day nerves back to work tomorrow!! Been a weird/strange/amazing 16 weeks or so but I can’t wait to get back to it tomorrow 😊

[Harrison Dunks @Coach_Harrison1]

@alexbone86 Cheers mate. Looking forward to a 🍺 or 10 soon.

[Harrison Dunks @Coach_Harrison1]

Of course, when I say amazing, that is very much personally. A lot has changed in my life over the last 4 months that I don’t think would’ve normally. I totally understand how tough it’s been for most, but I’d consider myself lucky and I’m lost grateful for that.

[Harrison Dunks @Coach_Harrison1]

I love the analysis in cricket. Opinions/analysis based on stats/videos and evidence. Then explained so well someone who dosent know too much about the detail in cricket can understand. So much better than most football anlysis/pundits on TV - especially at half time.

[Harrison Dunks @Coach_Harrison1]

Finished this off this evening. A free online course - would recommend to anyone working in sport, but also valuable if you’re not too. Look out for each other and talk 👍🏻 #BreakTheStigma

[Harrison Dunks @Coach_Harrison1]

Feel for Brighton (Potter) here. Think they’ve moved the ball around really well. Two individual mistakes in possesion have cost them, but I think this side under Potter will be close to breaking into the top 10 next season.

[Harrison Dunks @Coach_Harrison1]

@PeteBeaumont1 I’ll admit I never used to rotate positions when I first started GR coaching. But open enough to learn & see the value in it. This guy has replied calling people “Fergies, Numptees & Cokeheads”!! Which I think sums it up! Wouldn’t want my kid to be playing for a side like that.

[Harrison Dunks @Coach_Harrison1]

I love Facebook coaching groups!

[Harrison Dunks @Coach_Harrison1]

@JohnColeman91 Absolutely. Especially if you take the “stigma” away from player rotations by creating that environment it becomes natural & each kid/parent gains a better understanding.

[Harrison Dunks @Coach_Harrison1]

@PeteBeaumont1 Incredible, isn’t it?!

[Harrison Dunks @Coach_Harrison1]

@JohnColeman91 Totally agree re changing positions. Equally at that age surely even if a kid wanted to try being a goalie for the first time then what a time to do it!

[Harrison Dunks @Coach_Harrison1]

Lovely little 10k down to the beach today. Started reading this too. Looking forward to carrying it on 📖

[Harrison Dunks @Coach_Harrison1]

Is it just me or do you want to see decent analysis of the game at half time? Details of what’s happened & why, analysis of tactical battles & what could/should change in second half. Roy Keane’s views are just boring in my opinion.

[Harrison Dunks @Coach_Harrison1]

So pleased I reflected on last week. Wrote down a few things that I wanted to change and have began to implement them today. Also started a “What will tomorrow look like?” In my notes. A few things that I want to achieve on that day. Power of planning/reflection is so important.

[Harrison Dunks @Coach_Harrison1]

Proud of myself this week. Set out a plan at the start of the week to track all calorie intake & to exercise more - aiming for walking 250 miles this month. Few things I can do better so time to reflect & review and improve - carrying on tomorrow 💪🏻💪🏻

[Harrison Dunks @Coach_Harrison1]

@mrjakehumphrey Thanks for the reply Jake. Also easy to blame external people/factors. I think equally a lot of things are your fault, and the only way to change is to then take responsibility for it. One of my fav quotes is “Nothing changes if nothing changes!”

[Harrison Dunks @Coach_Harrison1]

I also don’t know who needs to see this - but I did. Maybe it will help someone somewhere... #Simplicity

[Harrison Dunks @Coach_Harrison1]

I ask myself the “Fault vs Responsibility” question from @mrjakehumphrey every day. My favourite part of THPP. One of the main things that has completely changed my way of thinking & life over the last month. Can’t wait for the pod to be back.
