Testimonials
“I had read a fair bit about Raymond’s football periodisation methodology and then had the opportunity to invite him to our England camp in 2017/18 in preparation for the Rugby World Cup in 2019. Raymond is an outstanding teacher of coaching and clearly has a method of preparation that is intelligently constructed. For any coach interested in improving their methodology, I would strongly recommend attending Raymond’s course in Melbourne. It is a MUST attend.”
Eddie Jones
Head Coach Japan National Team Rugby
“Attending Raymond’s Team Sports Periodisation Course should be mandatory for all invasion sport coaches looking for an increase in their learning and growth as a coaching professional. You will find Raymond and the course content both challenging and applied in nature. Many of your thoughts and beliefs on a variety of coaching concepts will also be challenged. I have no doubt, after attending the course, you will leave a much better coach! And as Raymond says, our players deserve better coaches. Attending this course in Melbourne is a once in a lifetime opportunity to add to your continual professional development. Miss it at your peril.”
Neil Craig
Former AFL Assistant and Head Coach and currently involved in improving coach education and coaching performance
“I first became aware of Raymond’s book, Football Periodisation Part 1 in 2014. The idea of objective and universal football philosophy and the concept of football periodisation immediately resonated with me. In the following years, I was lucky to spend time with Raymond and studied his other resources. I believe what separates Raymond from others is his deep theoretical knowledge and insightful practical applications.
Whilst Raymond’s knowledge and experience have its origin in football, his concepts can be applied very effectively to other field sports. Historically traditional periodisation has erroneously been imposed on sports coaches, which only focuses on the physical dimension. Raymond provides a holistic framework for the planning and construction of training, to ensure match performance can be stabilised and optimised.”
