On the Grass: Gareth Byres on Grassroots and Working with Parents

When we started this series of shows we were keen to share some of the fascinating stories of people working “on the grass”, and Gareth Byres is the embodiment of this.

He has over 20 years experience of coaching young people and he is a busy guy! His background includes working in specialist schools, mentoring grassroots coaches, developing the girls game and making time to take his sons grassroots teams.

This discussion addresses some of the questions we get asked by members. Gareth covers working with parents, developing lifelong friends through sport and some practical tips for coaches working in any set up.

Hope you enjoy the show!
