Thank you @sportscotland and all the incredible people who continue to invest in my development, including the athletes, coaches and support teams I work alongside.
A key transition for any new coach is from sport spectator to observer and analyser. It's a bloody hard transition, especially if your own child is playing.
It can suck the naive joy out of the game for you. It does also mean you'll generally spout less nonsense though.
For me, very much depends on the type of research, because it isn’t all to the same purpose
This paper still guides me on that front:

Unlike other professions, there are very few coaches doing the research. The label pracademic is maligned in some quarters, but it represents a focus on practical concerns
Our amazing (& new fav) episode "In Conversation with @patience_luke, @LesleyMckenna, & @Bradley_McGee" is dropping soon on all good podcast platforms. Join us as we explore their journeys through three olympics and how that shaped their perspectives on sport and sport coaching.
