#GBHockey Advanced Coaching Programme - Cohort 3 - now complete. A thread of thanks! (1/10)
First up: @dannynewcombe - yes he wears a baseball cap and pretends he& #39;s still 19, but I still remember when he showed me & #39;another way& #39; of coaching, back in a seminar room in Brookes. Always open to having me along to sessions, and chatting hockey over a beer - top bloke.
Next: She& #39;s not on Twitter - but my & #39;housemate& #39; Harriett. Totally supportive through the ACP process, in particular the pain that was making the application video (as a professional videographer, being in front of the camera was terrifying). Thanks H

Number 3: @SJClark91 - mate you& #39;re an absolute keeno hockey badger - and I love it. You& #39;ve no idea how nice it was to see a friendly face on day 1 on the ACP, when I was feeling totally out of my depth.
In at 4: @russellearnshaw - I& #39;ve loved our 100 mph, idea a second, usually both in different cars, conversations. Whilst no longer formally a mentor, I& #39;ll still hopefully be in touch, and be teasing you! Here& #39;s one more zoom background:
Number 5: @kellehers07 - whilst at a NAGS camp, and feeling *massive* imposter syndrome, you dragged my over and got ME (why I& #39;ll never know) to feedback to your group. To this day I& #39;m sure what I said made no sense, but I& #39;ll never forget your welcome, and the opportunity to chat
Next up @cbisbored - you are one of the most authentic humans I& #39;ve ever met. Loved playing agitator with you, and the feeling that hockey isn& #39;t all posh people. How you& #39;ve stood up to your year has been an inspiration.
Struggling with imposter syndrome was massive for me in ACP - so @katewalsh11 (thanks to Sarah for the intro to ACTUAL KATE RICHARDSON-WALSH https://abs.twimg.com/emoji/v2/... draggable="false" alt="đ" title="LĂ€chelndes Gesicht mit herzförmigen Augen" aria-label="Emoji: LĂ€chelndes Gesicht mit herzförmigen Augen">) the 20 mins we spent chatting hockey at LV was insane. Your dedication to learning to be the best coach you could be was an inspiration
Back during a rare sunny day at Lilleshall, @paulcon05 ran a session that got us thinking about who we were. That, and conversations with @CoachRossco on the same day, kicked off a series of reflections that will transform my life,and are why I& #39;m now engaged - not to them though!
We& #39;re nearly done folks - don& #39;t worry. My penultimate thanks to @MattWay5 and @mrbendudley - working with you has been the first time I& #39;ve felt truly valued as a coach, and chatting hockey with you both has made me a better coach.
Last - but 100% not least - my two ACP besties @katehporter and @KiranRaichura. I love how we& #39;re different enough to really challenge each other, but similar enough for that to be fun, friendly, and constructive https://abs.twimg.com/emoji/v2/... draggable="false" alt="đȘ" title="Angespannter Bizeps" aria-label="Emoji: Angespannter Bizeps">https://abs.twimg.com/emoji/v2/... draggable="false" alt="đ" title="HockeyschlĂ€ger und -ball" aria-label="Emoji: HockeyschlĂ€ger und -ball">https://abs.twimg.com/emoji/v2/... draggable="false" alt="đŠĄ" title="Badger" aria-label="Emoji: Badger">
