Stuart Law joins Chris Titley from Colombo as he prepares Nepal for the T20 World Cup and lays out a brutally simple coaching creed: do the basics better, give players clear roles, and train the moments you want to win.

He explains the week-by-week plan, heavy work, sensible taper, then role clarity and scenario training in tournament camp and how that builds composure under pressure.

Stuart is sharp on selection and mindset: consistent performance beats highlight reels, hard conversations are inevitable, and coaches must remove noise while keeping the environment curious and fun.

You’ll get quick, practical T20 takeaways.. like spin variety, left-right batting balance, power options and the value of running smart singles, plus firsthand colour from his playing days and a simple closing line for young athletes: love the sport first, work hard second.

In this episode of Scoreboard, Chris Titley talks with Craig Starcevich about the relentless, practical work that sits behind elite teams and the small choices coaches make to turn potential into performance.

Craig walks through a coach’s view of a modern football club — how more staff and more data have to be balanced with clarity, how you build a player’s role without over-rotating them, and why the real job of a coach is getting players to focus on the few things that truly matter on game day.

Craig explains how the women’s game has matured , deeper talent pathways, smarter recruiting and a clearer production line of young players and why that shift changes how you train, pick and develop a list.

He talks about practice versus presence, the value of scenario training for composure in tight games, and the club-level decisions (facility design, shared culture between men’s and women’s programs) that quietly lift everyone.

You’ll also hear Craig on the human side of leadership: the importance of relationship building with new players, the need for empathy and mental-health awareness in modern squads, and what he tells parents who want the best for their kids.

He finishes by describing a playing-day moment that transformed his own confidence and why, as a coach, he still gets nervous and that nerves are part of what keeps him coming back.

In this episode of Scoreboard, Chris Titley talks with Wayne Pearce about what high performance really looks like when you move from the playing field into the boardroom.

Wayne draws straight lines from elite sport to business: trust and psychological safety are the founding blocks of every great team, practice beats presence, and clear intentions unlock the brain’s ability to notice opportunity.

Wayne explains how elite teams build trust quickly (the first two days of a State of Origin camp are about people not plays), why most businesses treat game day like every day and miss the upside of practicing teamwork, and how crisis leadership — not just crisis management — guided Project Apollo to restart the NRL during COVID.

He breaks down the science behind intention (the reticular activating system), the value of corrective feedback, and the practical tradeoffs of sacrifice, downtime and sleep.

This is a practical, human conversation about leading through uncertainty, designing teams that learn fast, and helping people find the overlap of strengths, passion and what the world will pay for. Wayne’s message is clear: set big goals, practice the fundamentals, build trust first, and then let the scoreboard follow.
