@joecoleraine @Colerainecc @cricketireland Well done Stephen, brilliant well done 👏

@PlayerGaelic I saw something from Rugby League in England a few years ago and basically there Go Games equivalent was make multiple small sided games on the basis of no subs

[KennyCarroll @squacko26]

@fhsperformance @movementcoachkm Clubs / parents need to organise
' playdates' at their field / pitch / Hall etc. Just organise day / time turn up and play no coaching . Use small sided format if appropriate. Replace the streets / Park. And that is then more likely to actually start happening again then...?

@movementcoachkm Fairly unheard of now kids taking up a sport at 13/14 yo or older

[KennyCarroll @squacko26]

@nathanrjohns As a non rugby person / player I never understood why 7s is not used to grow rugby across the country. It'd a different sport yes but barrier to entry surely lower

@Irish_Grounds Why always the rush to take down nets and goalposts at the old lansdowne Road ? Jobs for the boys?

[KennyCarroll @squacko26]

@TheHockeyPaper 5 a side hockey a good idea although some of the rules need to change. No tomahawk and no long forehand hit I would suggest

[KennyCarroll @squacko26]

@AndrewAbraham11 @JvanderB78 @guv61 Can we get a 'non competition ' fixture schedule. So fixtures are made at start of season and league table isn't kept. On a practical where I am (Ireland) would need Incentives / penalties to ensure fixtures are played.

@WalesLadiesHock @TheHockeyPaper @HockeyWales How does GB hockey work . Surely England, Scotland, Wales should all get a decent fair share. None of my business but strange the way it works . FIH need to tell nations to focus more on building up domestic hockey and then international hockey less is more for some nations.

[KennyCarroll @squacko26]

@TheS_Resource Many get 'told' sport is about 'a pathway' and then think I'm not good enough for that 'pathway' and then gradually drift away .

[KennyCarroll @squacko26]

@NoThirdMan Ie more people care

[KennyCarroll @squacko26]

@NoThirdMan I would guess in some of these places their is a stronger club culture with more cohesion and more volunteers with cricket passion and knowledge. This can help development.

@GreyBearLtd @FAgeCoaching @PeterPrickett @CoachingFamily @GRFootball Don't need a coach for every 3 v 3 team. Adult supervision is all that is required

@GeorgeDobell1 Always about them and then cricket people in England wonder why they make the decisions they do....
