The Sports Coaching Podcast with Sam Holmshaw

Hello and welcome back to The Sports Coaching Podcast. This week host Sam Holmshaw is joined by Sam Hough (Senior sports development coach at Burnley Football Club). This week, the chaps discuss ‘coaching in Asia’, which seems a suitable topic as our host enters his second year coaching full-time in Asia, whilst guest Mr Hough has just called time on 7 years coaching over in China. In the episode (Part 1), both Sam’s share there experiences coaching in China, sharing the similarities and differences of coaching between the UK and China, and the challenges (both personal and within coaching practice) that they have faced coaching in Asia. Part 2 of the episode will be out very very soon!
