Shownotes

This episode draws on the expertise of our comprehensive training course designed for coaches, players, referees, parents/carers, and volunteers - Understanding Neurodiversity in Grassroots Football.

In this episode, we delve into what neurodiversity means – the different ways the brain can work and interpret information, highlighting that people think differently and have varied interests and motivations and importantly, that it is not a mental health condition.

We emphasise the importance of accepting that everyone's brain works differently.

This episode equips listeners with foundational knowledge and practical insights to better support neurodiverse individuals in the grassroots football community.
