As sports officials, we are no strangers to pressure. Whether it's the high stakes of a playoff game or the weight of responsibility to ensure fair play on the field, pressure is a constant presence in our work. But it's important to remember that pressure is a privilege. Working the National Basketball Association (NBA) Playoffs may be demanding, but it's also an honor to know that you are officiating at the highest level of the sport. #PressureIsAPrivilege #NBAPlayoffs #SportsOfficiating #RefMasters

In 3 weeks the #nrl launch the 2024 season in Las Vegas. Having spent 3 years involved in North American sport with Toronto Wolfpack Rugby League, I can testify how, if done right, this could blow the market wide open, and here's why: Sport in North America is more than just sport, it's a religion - once embedded, fans don't just support their team but live for their team. Collision sports are amongst their most watched sports - there were 1156 billion minutes of NFL / NHL TV watched in 2023. If Rugby Legaue takes even a fraction of this, it's winning. The Money. - and this is what people in the UK, Aus, Europe, NZ couldn't get their heads around when I talked to them about it. Current estimate of the American sports market is 83 Billion dollars. Whilst we were in Toronto there was a team that paid $65m for a player just to bench him, because he was their nemesis. The money involved in North American sport is insane. There are many more reasons - TV deals, Varsity sports, infrastructure, culture....but above all else - I never met a single North American that watched the game and said "mehh, not for me that". Every single person was hooked and that was the reason why in a sports market that had the Toronto Raptors Basketball Club Inc. Toronto Maple Leafs Toronto FC Toronto Argonauts Football Club Toronto Blue Jays we were getting crowds of over 12000 in year 3. It's time for Rugby League to finally spread its wings and show why those of us involved believe it to be the greatest sport on 🌍 !!

Now throw in being 18 and, although he's had 2 seasons of first team football, not having the long term situational experience, and it's a tough spot for anyone. I've mentioned before that the Premier League is getting younger, the hunt for the next talent is growing. That makes the importance of focusing on not rushing players evermore present.

But are we tracking the metrics to ensure that players are getting the right technical load during the week to prepare them for the situations they face in games? Let's explore how we can give you those metrics to make training more attuned to matchplay! #sport #football #talent
