Brentwood Youth have a philosophy of 'football for all' and in this episode Michael talks about a lot of the good work that is going on at the club. Moving players between teams, both up and down, is a strategy that the club use to deliver the right level of challenge for every player. We talked about how communication and a shared vision is so important between players, parents, club and coach, and some of the strategies Brentwood use to foster that environment.
