See more. Understand why. Coach with purpose.

Mentorship for coaches who want to sharpen their observation, challenge their thinking and make better decisions.

Enquire about mentorship

The work of coaching

What do you see? What do you do next?

Athletes give you information every session. The coaching skill is deciding what matters, choosing a useful intervention and noticing what changes.

Mentorship gives you time to work through that process with an experienced coach. Bring real programmes, real questions and the decisions you are finding difficult.

We will examine the thinking behind the work and help you choose your next steps.

Observe and interpret

Recognise what an athlete can demonstrate and identify the movement problem worth coaching.

Choose and progress

Connect your exercise choices and progressions to a clear purpose. Know what would make you continue, adjust or change direction.

Coach young people

Work through growth, maturation, confidence and the practical realities of building physical capability over time.

Use the evidence

Read research critically and decide what it contributes to your athletes, your environment and your coaching choices.

Your development

Start with the questions in your own practice.

We discuss your experience, role and the areas you want to develop. Sessions can centre on case discussions, programme reviews and practical coaching problems.

Format, frequency, communication and fees are agreed around the support you need.

Your next step

Bring the question you keep coming back to.

Tell Simon about your coaching role and the area where another perspective would help.
