Dear GAINers,<\/p>\n

2 weeks post GAIN X and I have just retuned from visiting a school in the UK, Wellington School in Somerset, where I met the Director of Sport (Athletic Director in US schools) and we discussed all things coaching and Long-term Athlete Development.<\/p>\n

In true GAIN style I need to share the experience with you…\u00a0 but I need time to catch my breath and digest the experience, and the information we discussed to give it justice. It was like a mini-GAIN experience!<\/p>\n

Having witnessed Matin Bingisser’s presentation at GAIN X and the Pyramid that Defines General Preparatory Exercises (GPE), Specific Preparatory Exercises (SPE), Specific Development Exercises (SDE), Competitive Exercise (CE), then the Event in his Planning Process I have just seen the same concept applied to Fast Bowling in Cricket, which then has clarified things for me in my own rugby coaching and helped to put my thoughts\/ideas into a clearer System.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

Steffan Jones is the guy I spent the day with, a former professional Rugby Union and Cricket player in the UK, and he’s applying Frans Bosch’s concepts with Cricket Fast Bowlers with great success. He’s using a variety of methods, exercises and pieces of equipment and I know he communicates and shares things with Frans Bosch directly.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

So to see the impact GAIN is having outside of the GAIN Network is a great feeling to experience, and GAINers sharing with non-GAINers is something I want to share with the Network.<\/p>\n

From the inspiration and words of Coach Gambetta I can’t stress enough the impact of going outside of your sport… going outside of your Comfort Zone… and connecting with new people outside of your “inner circle”…<\/p>\n

“Be comfortable with being uncomfortable.”<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

I’ll share in more detail a summary of my learnings in a few days time.<\/p>\n

Keep Networking… Keep sharing… Keep believing…<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
