THE FUTURE COACH EVENTS

BY TOM BATES
The Future Coach
Monday 9 November 2020

I met Jason through a mutual friend, former Sergent Major Andy Buckley. In 2009 I visited the Royal Marines HQ in Lympstone to experience first hand the how tough the training environment is and learn from the finest fighting forces in the world. It was here that my respect, admiration and intrigue grew for the the psychological strength, resilience and focus of the Commandos.

Following a growing friendship whilst I was First Team Performance Coach at Brentford FC in the English Championship division, I invited Foxy to speak to the first team coaching staff and players in their pursuit of Premier League Promotion.

The inspiring stories from global combat missions, life and death decision making process and mental strength required to overcome unimaginable hostility has been a source of personal learning and encouragement for me.

When I moved to Premier League Aston Villa FC, I again invited Jason to speak to the first team playing squad along with Bill Beswick in Perfomance workshops designed to inspire the team. Now, for the first time, Jason and I are set to collaborate on a public platform at the virtual event Inspire in attempt to bring hope, energy and inspiration to everyone who attends.

Foxy is someone who I have admired and respected for many years. His capacity to communicate the powerful lessons encountered on the front line is a powerful and unique skillset which makes him a true leader in his field. I’ve seen first hand how he can inject positivity and motivate any audience he speaks with. 

Jason and I will be sharing stories, ideas and practical strategies from both elite sport and the military.
