In this podcast we have the pleasure of talking with Stu Armstrong, the Player Pathways manager for the U13-16's at England Rugby as well as the creator of the excellent Talent Equation website (found here www.thetalentequation.co.uk). Stu is also on twitter @stu_arm. 
In this weeks pod we discuss with Stu the importance of talent ID, as well as talent development, touching on early specialisation and scouting in football, especially at young ages. We also talk about training methods and what is necessary for positive player development, looking at coach/player led sessions, and the debate around opposed/un-opposed practices. The discussion also focuses on the importance of coaching and how culture and environment effect player development. We are sure you are going to love this one!
