BTW Episode 11 - Update from Coach Mack

Quick announcement from Coach Mack that we posted to socials last night. We're back! Expect new episodes in the next few weeks. In the meantime, subscribe and follow us on Socials @BTWthePodcast

BTW Episode 10 - Life During COVID19

Bobby and Coach Mack connect via Zoom to discuss why we haven't been playing any football, let alone recording. We discuss navigating through life as people, parents, and football coaches. We understand the world has been a little upside-down, so it's important as coaches to stay engaged with as many people as possible - especially your athletes - we thought we would share some of these thoughts with you as well. Stay safe everyone!

BTW Episode 9 - Assistant Coaches

S2E2: Join the Coaches as they discuss what the ideal roles and responsibilities of the various staff members on a coaching staff should look like, and also how they delegate, but also empower coaches.

BTW Episode 8 - Needs vs Wants

Everyone has needs and wants, and often they get a little blurred. The coaches kick off Season 2 discussing why a Player’s “wants” HAS to come after the Team’s “needs”. And an admission that coaches DO sometimes play favourites, and how you can be that player.

BTW Episode 7 - Play Up or Play Down?

This one is a really hot-button topic with some coaches. The question we ask is: if you are in the situation of being right in the middle; and you are given the choice, do you prefer to play up in a higher tier vs better teams (and likely get beat up weekly), or do you prefer to play down in the lower tier and be competitive. We’re engaging our social media friends to find out what people think on this one. Join us while we explore the ups and downs of both, and which is better. (Spoiler alert - we don’t actually figure that out..)
