064 How to Support Young Footballers

from Demystifying Mental Toughness · host David Charlton

If you're a football coach, player or parent of a young player or simply a fan of football you'll enjoy this. I speak to Edu Rubio who has coached at Valencia and Chelsea and now works as a technical consultant at Crystal Palace. The conversation flowed as we chatted about the challenges young academy footballers have and how to best support them. We unpick Edu's interest in Motivational Interviewing and how this has helped his coaching. We also discuss the role of the coach and parent in having a positive impact on young footballers. Key Learning Points: Football and other elite sporting environments can be unhealthy environments to be in because of the constant comparison that occurs between players. As a coach how to use motivational interviewing to improve your coaching style. How to use motivational interviewing to build a psychologically safe environment. Cultures without ego or hierarchies can be very helpful. By protecting individuals from setbacks and challenges you will not be supporting an individual to optimise their potential and build their levels of resilience. Success is about being content within yourself and taking the learning from all situations.

Wounded Warriors of the Cross Gary Pastoral and clergy mental health is a mostly ignored area, especially by those who live their lives as pastors in the clergy. The stigma of mental health within those who serve in the shadow of the cross is something that invokes the stigma of fear. Many of those in the clergy will choose to suffer in their despair rather than reaching out for help. Sometimes those suffering choose to wait until it's too late to get the real help that they need. At Wounded Warriors of the Cross our mission is to lift the stigma and the veil of silence that encompasses clergy mental health and assist those who suffer in silence. Wounded Warriors of the Cross is here to shed the light of Christ's love into those dark places.
