📈 PROGRESS! What does progress in football mean to you? Is it your child scoring more goals than the previous week? Is it them being scouted by a professional football club? For me, progress is so important. But I look at how children are progressing in terms of their communication skills, their confidence, their ability to make new friends, and understanding the importance of being a team player. These are the progressions that will have a huge impact on children in their later life so that’s why we prioritise teaching life skills through our training!

#mentoring #mentoringmatters #americanfootball #weekendmood Philadelphia Eagles Offensive Limeman Lane Johnson (and nominee for National Football League (NFL) Walter Payton Man Of The Year) is mentoring Tyler Guyton a college student at University of Oklahoma who plays on the offensive line. He is mentoring him even though there's no guarantee that Tyler will be drafted by the Eagles (or if he is he would take Lane's job within 3 years). You don't see this commitment to mentoring in many fields of sporting endeavour, and when you combine it with Lane's involvement in #mentalhealth and #mentalhealthawareness charities it makes him a shining example for other #sports personalities to emulate. Reading the story of Lane's involvement with Tyler reminded me to sign up to mentor a student at The University of Law, their scheme aims "to give students who have little or limited legal experience an insight into life as a legal practitioner". We #lawyers sometimes forget how intimidating coming into a profession (the #legalprofession in particular) can be, and that aspirants don't always understand that most of us are normal people who were in their shoes once. Let's hold the ladder for others, sign up as a mentor. #payitforward #kindnessmatters #lawstudents #lawschool #university #weekendvibes #students #pupillage

Today's wisdom comes straight from Ali Riley of Angel City FC and New Zealand 🌟⚽: The golden advice for any youth player dreaming of playing at elite schools like Stanford and then turning pro? 'Practice with both feet. Everything, both feet.' It's a simple yet powerful message. Mastery of both feet isn't just a skill, it's an edge that sets you apart on the field. Whether it's passing, shooting, or dribbling, being ambidextrous makes you unpredictable and versatile - a nightmare for any defender! Remember, the path to pro isn't just about hard work; it's about smart work. Training both feet is a challenge, but it's challenges like these that prepare you for top-tier football. Embrace this advice from Ali, and watch how it elevates your game to new heights. 🚀 #DualFootedDynamism #SoccerSkills #BeastModeSoccer #AliRileyWisdom #DreamBigTrainHard

The Future of NIL in college! A recent article from footballscoop.com reports that Jaden Rashada is suing Coach Napier/ Florida NIL boosters for 14 million, claiming he "was defrauded out of millions of dollars by not following through in their word." If successful, this could be a landmark case with significant implications for the NIL landscape in college programs. How do you think this will impact the future of NIL in college?
