England, Luton & Ted Lasso - Powell's 40 years in football

For someone so young, his attributes are very, very good. He takes on board everything. He's got a strong mind, he knows what he wants to see. He wants to lead from the front but he's not afraid to ask, and that's the best thing. But it's not going to happen immediately, so the big thing is to hold tight when things are not going your way, because it's a process. If the manager is angry, you don't follow it up with angry words, you follow up with support and a bit of know-how. There are times when I can give him a helping hand, but there's also times where I go, yeah, that's the right way and something I haven't gone through.

Coaching Can Improve Mental Health Symptoms and Resilience

When we think about getting help for our mental health, therapy is often the first-and sometimes only-option that comes to mind. Therapy works, and for many people it is essential. But it is not the only effective path. Emerging evidence suggests that well‑designed coaching -especially when delivered inside an adaptive, stepped‑care model-can help people feel better faster, build emotional skills, and relieve pressure on an overburdened clinical system (Sagui Henson et al.).

Report: Manchester United interested in former Bayern Munich coach Niko Kovac

Manchester United, the spotlight of this report, is currently placed 5th in the Premier League and has appointed Michael Carrick to coach the team till the end of the season after sacking Ruben Amorim. Usually, few clubs rival Bayern Munich when it comes to changing coaches as if they were used underwear, but Manchester United can give them a run for their money. Unfortunately, changing coaches has never seemed to fix what seems to be more of a systemic issue in Manchester.

Yet, when you ask the average person what it means to be aggressive, they say that hurting someone is part of the goal. High achievers know that the opposite of being aggressive is being passive. And, because success will not just magically drop in their lap, they can't be passive-they have to go after it.

When tough, but healthy coaches challenged us to try new things in gymnastics-in particular, dangerous skills that lent themselves to feelings of fear and potential injury-they did so in a way that was safe and supported: with spots and soft mats as needed, with endless drills that broke down the skills into manageable parts, and with a calm temperament that built trust (e.g., with statements like "I've got you," "We'll do it in slow motion," "Do you feel ready for the next step?"). We had a say in what we were doing with our own bodies, and coaches were there for us through the ups and downs of the learning process.
