Part II (Part I published on April 14th, 2020) of my conversation with the Head Coach of the University of New Haven Women's Soccer Team, Laura Duncan. In this episode, Laura talks about "plus" and "minus" elements to the current landscape of youth soccer, what she looks for from her recruits and her athletes, the people who have impacted Laura as a coach and leader, and Laura's plan of attack in preparation for the 2020 season.
Leadership Notes and Other Highlights:
The importance of a positive mindset in sport and life
The love and commitment required to be a college athlete
Coaching in inquiry mode, not screaming mode
The importance of the "Blue Collar, Dirt, and Grit" Mentality
We find out who is the better coach (kind of) between Laura and Charlie
Elton John, Billy Joel, and Phil Collins - no better way to get pumped up for a game!
The next book Laura will read (she promises!) - Winner: And How They Succeed by Alastair Campbell
