GARY PIGGOTT | Coach Developer, Educator & Mentor
Tonight I've had the pleasure with speaking with Gary on the TCA Pod. We discussed; What does football or football coaching mean to you? Your coaching journey to date? Who influenced you the most? Who inspires you the most from the football world or it could be someone locally? Let’s take a deep dive into your coaching mind - what makes you tick? How would you set your team up to counter act a 1-343 formation? If you had the chance to take a bit from every top, successful coach in the world, who would they be? and what would be your top takeaways? Can you define what is a coach developer and what does your job entail? What do you like the most about your job? Could you talk to us about the grassroots workshop you have recently completed and what aspects came up? What are the biggest features do you favour the most from the 4 core pillars or can you just concentrate on 1? What are the top 3 things that coaches need to be successful? What’s 1 bit of advice given to you that resonated the most in coaching? I would also listen very closely to the 1-343 formation question - some golden nuggets I've never thought about! #AlwaysLearning #TCAPod | #HappyListening
