Pre-season is not just about preparing players for the challenges for the upcoming season, it’s also for coaches! The launch of the Surf Nation Insights Webinar Series demonstrates how crucial it is that our coaching staff are also developing and aware of the current trends in the youth game. The pre-season webinar series will provide four in-depth and interactive events for coaches centered around training environments, post-game feedback, data analysis and performance psychology. Coaches will have the opportunity to watch in-depth presentations delivered by our expert panel, as well as discussing and sharing best practice models across the Surf Nation community.
Surf Nation Director of Football, Gary Curneen, believes the webinar series has the ability to add a unique layer of support to the Surf coaching community.
“There are so many components to coaching today and we wanted to kick-off the new season by highlighting some key areas. Our Insights Series is designed to support and inspire our coaches, as well as igniting a curiosity for learning, alongside the natural excitement for the upcoming season. We are really fortunate to have a group of coaches who are passionate about the game, extremely open to new ideas and also generous to share experiences that can help us all learn and grow, alongside our players. ” – Gary Curneen
