In the summer of 2021, I took a youth team to an unbeaten campaign, in their first ever season playing together.

In the first half of the episode, I also discuss the exciting opportunities coming up on TheMastermindSite.com. Follow the show and my body of work @mastermindsite and @desmondrhys!

In the episode, I discuss topics ranging from instilling a positive culture with your team, to the top training methods for helping your players reach the next level.
