About Legacy;
The All Blacks are the world’s most successful sporting outfit, undefeated in over 75% of their international matches over the last 100 years. What is the secret of their success? And what can we – as individuals, companies and teams – learn from them? You can read more about it here.
I read this book over the Christmas and there were some great points in it. Plenty to take-away from it and get an inside look at the All Blacks.
“Complejidad y deporte” Natalia BalaguĂ© y Carlota Torrents.
The book I loved the most is probably “Brilliant Orange, The Neurotic Genius of Dutch Football”. I devoured “Mourinho immaginario” too, but it is written in my mother tongue (italian) and unfortunately I don’t think you could find an international edition.
These two books are my legacy to you đ
They Call Me Coach by John Wooden. The first book that I did a book report on when I was in elementary school, and I wanted to be a coach ever since.
Soccer Tactics- An Analysis of Attack and Defense by Massimo Lucchessi. May be a little dated now but was my first real introduction into performance analysis. Still a great read.
Peppa Pig: Sports Day is the only time my young nephew has ever taken any sort interest in sport.
The Fighters Mind – Sam Sheridan. Brilliant read about one man’s quest to gain insight into what fighters go throught psychologically and physically. Fully recommend it
