HEY COACH WAKE UP! This is your FINAL call

Over the past few weeks many high profile Rugby and Cricket coaches have been sacked from the school coaching system.Things haven’t been any different in the international sporting set up either.   Everyone from the Manchester United Coach to the English Cricket Team Coach and the Australian Rugby Head

FIT not FAT

All you need to know about BMI

 

Is it absolutely pointless to have excess amount of fat for any other sportsmen? When you see an overweight fellow on the golf course, do you assume he couldn’t possibly be physically fit? 

Does SIZE Matter ?

In my time at Bedford School in England and the time that I played Junior Rugby in Sri Lanka, I played as a full back. I was able to kick, drop kick, place kick, without any effort, maybe because of my soccer background.    

YOU’VE ALREADY WON ! – Simple yet effective guidelines to sport’s psychological winning

If it is a Bradby shield rugby match, a cricket big match or even a professional sporting encounter, the standard goal is that everyone WANTS to win. Some teams get extra help from professional specialists to gain much needed physiological and psychological support. Others hire prestigious, reputed consultants to get them the trophy/title.

Is Winning Everything?

This was asked by Dr. Asanga WIjayaratne  from the St. Joseph’s cricket team during their Big Match Preparation Psychology Session.    Almost all the 1st Eleven players said ‘NO’, ‘winning is not everything’.
