The fact this is in Scotland next year is a big deal - and an opportunity. If we could settle the teams a little earlier, perhaps there's scope for some proactive (and pre-emptive) focused coaching. Again, let's consider some of the successes: Murad has made some fantastic progress over the last year alone ; ask ourselves how we could learn from that and replicate it more broadly. I am, for example, fairly pleased with Rachel (and Sarah)'s progress (and the efficiency of our programme) but I'm also conscious that in reality she's catching up with me a little too fast - and, in truth, I might not be able to improve my own game fast enough to remain adequate for her as a coach. I feel that consciously and deliberately targeting our resources to provide some assistance at various specific levels could really help.
I remain happy to assist where I can.
