“As a manager of the Stafford Town Ladies FC during the 2016-17 season I was trying to think outside the box in order to improve our results. The players were not playing as a team but as a set of individuals. Our match record up until 4 December 2016 (the date of the session) had been 10 defeats from 1o games scoring only 15 goals and conceding 67. I decided to contact Nanaki and have her talk to the players and give them an introductory session focussing on positive mental attitude when on the pitch.

We then played a further ten games (after the session) up until the end of the season achievening 5 wins, scoring 20 goals and only conceding 25.  The players really bought into the attitude and values that Nanaki expressed during the session as these complimented my attitude and values, providing a consistent approach. This is the key factor, your session aligned with my messages to the players before, during and after the season.

Many thanks for your help and I hope to work with you again in the future !”
