i would like to say thanks to all the fans and the city of leeds who made me feel like i was never away from home. thanks to all the @Leedsknights organization and a massive thank you to @Aldy_47 who gave a young 21 year old a chance to prove himself a show what he could do.
Kayla Poole was outstanding for @TeamGBicehockey tonight. Had a plan and executed it brilliantly. ๐
The mental side of the game is so important. Played the big moments perfectly.
We would just like to say a massive thank you for all the support you have all shown in 2022 while setting up our HPH programme. We wish a massive Happy New Year to all our athletes, their parents and our staff. Thanks to all who made this possible. Hereโs to an amazing 2023 !
What a year 2022 has been!
Being one of the few coaches to bring eye-tracking software to the masses has been a real game changer as we learn more about how the eyes and brain can be trained to improve performance.
Absolutely honoured and delighted to become the first FocusCalm accredited coach in the UK! ๐ฌ๐ง
The course focusses on how practitioners integrate Brain-Computer Interface (BCI) technology and neuroscience into their existing practice to become a FocusCalm expert. ๐ง ๐๏ธโโ๏ธ
Being able to track gaze behaviour, fixations and saccades in Ice Hockey Goaltenders is a game changer. Being able to understand what they see & subsequently develop key skills which can then be viewed in situ is going to make huge inroads in the quality of goaltenders we develop
Multi object tracking via @NeuroTrackerCSi using eye tracking software to view gaze positioning and eye movement between fixations. Nice smooth eye movement on show and use of wider peripheral to track, rather than saccades.
Imagine being able to see exactly what your athlete sees. To be able to see what they see when they make decisions, to see what they see when they make passes or saves.
Imagine being able to use actual data to impact training and performance.
I donโt need to imagine.
Well, as summers go this one has been a blast!
Thanks to @KingEliteGoal, @TheGoalieClinic and @TeamGBicehockey for seeing the importance in Cognitive Skills Coaching for UK goalies.
Looking forward to even bigger and better things next season! ๐๐ง ๐ช
