"One of the biggest things I've taken away is that coaching isn't simply about delivering information or working towards performance outcomes. It's about understanding the individual athlete, understanding yourself as a coach, and developing a relationship where both sides can communicate, challenge and support each other effectively."
"Rather than always feeling I need to have the answers, there's real value in asking better questions, listening more carefully, and understanding what the athlete is actually thinking and feeling. It's given me a much deeper understanding of the human side of coaching."
"The work Louis has carried out with our staff has been fundamental in bringing the group together. I've seen the results through their relationships with our student-athletes. I don't think the label 'psychology workshop' does it justice, it's more far-reaching than that and explores the social landscape we're working in."
