Melanie Thomas is a coach who has lived the life. Got the qualifications, walked the walk and got the T shirt. She has great insight and shares all her experience with us. In this episode we champion all things youth coaching. We challenge the status quo and hope to begin the national conversation about best practice and where we are going with youth soccer coaching in the USA. Melanie shines a light on her experience coaching soccer as a female and the situations she has found herself in with some male counterparts. This episode is a raw, eye opening real account of the barriers that still exist for female coaches and why we must continue to advocate, work for and offer opportunity to all marginalized groups of people who hope to enter the beautiful game. Doing things the "old way" may still be prominent for a lot of youth soccer coaching but no more will it be ignorant. We know so much more now about how young players learn and this episode makes no apologies for calling out some of the practice that dominates the national discourse. We have to consider the environments our young players are growing up in and if nothing else this episode serves as a benchmark to further discussion and improvement in the coming years.

For female coaches wishing to begin or improve their coaching journey contact us today and we will explain how we at the ProPlayer have partnered with Coachbetter and the Football Association of Wales to help you get you started on the pathway to your UEFA badges - [email protected]

Chris Seargeant Assistant Manager & Head of Coaching, The New Saints - Welsh Premier Leauge“

This is a real life episode. Industrial football language has been bleeped out. However, we make no apologies because this is what it needs to be. A raw, authentic offering with amazing insight into the real world of devoting your life to the game we love. Chris Sargent lives, breathes and loves football. The good, the bad and the ugly of a life spent devoted to the game. In an "everything is always perfect" social media obsessed life “Sarge” opens the door for us all to a world of refreshing honesty including all the ups and downs, hitting rock bottom and bouncing back to the UEFA Champions Leauge. We take a deep dive into the Role of the “number 2” in the high performance team - this episode tackles it all, How to be the best support for the head coach / manager and the main thing, the smaller decisions you can take off the manager’s toes to help the ship sail better. Sarge talks to us about how you can potentially get a bit of a better “swell” for things as people will often open up to you about things better than they will the manager, especially in tough moments. He explains how often the assistant manager works in the shadows and to embrace that to be successful. His take on why you are rewarded as an assistant coach when the team is rewarded is a game changer for aspiring coaches. His advice on leadership and balancing structure, inspiration and ultimately owning what you do is a must listen for anyone and everyone in a leadership position. His advice on connection and respecting everyones subtleties as a coach is an art form in itself. Sarge, an expert at his craft, lays it bear for you to learn from his success and his own learning in the hope it helps you get closer to your dreams. This episode is as real as it gets, its a special one and we hope you can draw the strength you need from it when you need it...“Don’t chase it…live in your own authenticity!
