"He just seems rude!"
But have you ever considered this?
What is the player's cultural background?
I had to explain to a coach.
A player may avoid eye contact as a sign of respect, especially if they're from an African household.
Why?
Thanks to @SHCFA for coming down to @Handsworth_FC yesterday to deliver the Stepping Over the Line workshop to next year's Degree students as they begin their coaching journey. โฝ๏ธ๐

2024/2025 Projections have been updated as at 9th March 2024.
Step 6 is always the most difficult due to the variables of both RFL promotions & varying division sizes.
The 4 additional Step 6 promotions aren't confirmed but an assumption of how the FA will fill Step 5.

๐ฃ๏ธ Lionel Scaloni: "We are losing the essence of football. Not only at a professional level but also with kids."
"My children play in Spain and are overwhelmed with information. They receive the ball, and they're already being told what to do."
"There are fewer dribblers because if they barely get the ball and you say, 'Pass it!'... Imagine if Messi, when he was eight years old, had been constantly told by his coaches to "Pass it!" We wouldn't have him today."
"Football has become such a huge thing, everyone reads, studies, and thinks that with that, they can already manage."
"If you tell a 7 or 8-year-old to make a diagonal run, cover defensively... He's seven years old! Let him play with the ball, make mistakes, and when he's 14 or 15, then we can start correcting."
"It's a message for the future. This is a sport, and the beauty of football should not be lost."
