Acting
Retired from athletics, pursued my other love - Acting
Sourced people much smarter than me
Applied principles of sport and training

No one’s too old to learn new skills!

Coaching
Not an expert on everything
Find people who know more than me
Work as, and within a team-synergy
Don’t do B before you master A
Work on strengths, develop weaknesses
Coaching is a gift that one can share
It is a pleasure to give it away

Philosophy
I have 31 years’ experience of L L C
Listening, Looking, and Copying
Not spent 31 years repeating the same one year
I am not afraid to ask “why?”
I stick to what works
I realised it’s not revolution, but evolution
Quality is more important than Quantity
