In episode 31 of the Platform to Perform Podcast, fresh off the back of presenting at the Female Athlete Summit, I spoke with the Soccer Queen, Erica Suter. Erica’s holistic approach to training youth athletes is an aspect that shone through in this podcast as we spoke about:
· How to balance ball work with the off the ball work for young footballers
· How she structures her mentoring sessions for the young girls she works with
· How she would approach conditioning for the youth female athlete considering the Youth Physical Development model
· The importance of stimulating the brain when it comes to training young athletes
· Not getting shiny object syndrome about new technology in strength and conditioning
