I have always loved soccer, the passion it evokes in people from all walks of life, and the life concepts one can learn from its end to end cycle partakers (i.e fans, players, agents, parents of players, coaches etc). I am no Arsenal fan, but noting the hope Arteta has ignited in the Arsenal fan base in the recent years, i took keen interest in this book and the same was shared with me by a leadership mentor Pepe Minambo. I completed this book over a week back and this for me has been a very worthwhile read - the lessons among others included; i) agreeing clear non negotiable behaviors with your team, no one is above this law ii) remembering to remain human even when the going is tough&rough iii) maintaining a strong culture of accountability iv) ensuring all are clear on vision and strategy. v) staying the course and not being deterred by people and obstacles. Grateful for the learnings.

My absolute favorite part of my job is getting to tell incredible stories that often get overlooked and yet - when told - have an undeniable lasting impact. Last night, our team at the National Football League (NFL) and 72andSunny finally brought this special story to the world during an unbelievable Super Bowl LVIII. Everyone has a dream and with a little bit of help all of those dreams can become a reality. Kwezi represents millions of boys and girls around the world that dream of playing this exciting game of football. I'm fired up about the future of our sport, growing it around the world through our International Player Pathway program, flag football (LA28 bound!), and our international expansion programs bringing games to London, Munich, Brazil, and now Madrid in 2025! The future is bright and the message is clear: It doesn't matter who you are, where you are born, what gender you are, or even your skill level....as long as you are born to play! #Footballisforeveryone #BorntoPlay Tim Ellis Rhett Nichols Jackie Finn Lucy Hallowell Glenn Cole Zach Hilder Shane Chastang Katie Martin Danny Nouri Laura Ferguson Jason LaFlore Matt Turnier Nicole Haase Damaune Journey Evin Shutt

🏀 As an expert in the basketball industry, it's crucial to uphold the standards of sportsmanship and fair play at all times. The suspension of Wellington Saints' Lat Mayen by the Game Review Commissioner serves as a reminder of the importance of player conduct on and off the court. 🏀 Professionalism is key in maintaining the integrity of the game, and actions have consequences that can impact not only individual players but also the team as a whole. It's imperative that players always prioritize respect and sportsmanship in high-intensity situations. What impacts do you think this suspension will have on the upcoming games and the overall dynamics of the league?

Data Analyst & First Team Scout | I help aspiring and current football professionals create opportunities in the game by writing online | Creator of the Online Portfolio Blueprint
As a scout you need to understand context to properly asses a player or a team effectively. Prior to watching a game you need to do your research. You (ideally) shouldn’t just rock up and make notes. Here are some things you should be researching prior to scouting: • Form • Are there any permutations? Knockouts, relegation, promotion ect • Any off field issues transfer embargo, financial issues ect • Team news - missing or injured players • Predicted line-ups • Set-piece takers • Specific players in form or ones to watch
