About this listen

This week we welcome back Shaun McLaren for his episode reflecting on mistakes and lessons learned in his career!

In this conversation, Shaun shares two pivotal coaching mistakes. The first mistake was testing a player on day one of preseason with a repeated sprint test, which resulted in a severe hamstring injury. The second mistake was using high-speed running and sprinting exposure as risk factors for injury without considering the limitations of the data. Both mistakes taught Shaun the importance of being flexible and reactive in coaching, as well as the need to prioritise skill development and performance problem-solving over data-driven approaches.

I hope you enjoy the episode, please share to your networks if you do!
