This week on the Ball and All Podcast, we welcome back Andy King (episode 19) - coach to World No 1 surfer Gabriel Medina and without question, one of the most inspirational guests we've ever had on the podcast.  In this episode we learn about the intricacies of coaching and mentoring one of the best competitors on the planet and we explore Kingy's coaching journey, including his methodology on why adaptability is a pivotal trait in all successful coaches, why both feedback and empathy are crucial in developing a rapport with athletes and how the Tokyo Olympics will be an incredible challenge for so many reasons.
