Hi all.
It’s been a while since I’ve written on here, and even longer since I’ve done so colloquially.
As we start, I’ll keep it succinct at two things.
I’ve been busy and working a lot in the background. Firstly, I’ve made the intention to write something on here weekly, about football – most probably football tactics, but as you’ll be aware I love the holistic and human parts of football as much as anything.
Secondly, I have been developing a foundational football tactics course that aims to provide an all-in-one knowledge base.
For the years I’ve been a public-facing analyst/scout/content creator, one question is sent to me more than any other:
I want to learn about football tactics (or analysis). How did you start – what resources did you use? What books can I buy?
Well, long story short – there isn’t really any singular resource that I found myself being able to share with people. My journey was the result of 100s of hours, watching various videos, reading lots of blogs and lots of trial and error.
I’m sure if you’re reading this, some of your journeys will echo the above story.
So, noticing this problem point, I’ve been developing a singular resource that I’d be able to share with people readily. Of course it’s taken many hours and is under production at the moment, but paired with the insight I’ve gained over 100s of hours – I hope I’m onto something really useful.
As follows is the course structure – in its format at present (although subject to further improvement post-feedback):
With the information in this course, you'll be:
• Best equipped to improve your content creation
• Apply it to football writing or journalism
• Begin your journey into professional football work,
• or simply better understand the sport.
And this is where I pose an offer and also, require your help.
