In this Masterclass Discussion, Player Development Project Editor, Dave Wright hosts Ken for an informative conversation about the role of HPSNZ, talent development pathways, sports science in youth sport and ensuring the athlete sits at the centre of the learning process. A fantastic discussion and highly worth watching for coaches who want to challenge the status quo and improve their understanding of working with young people.
