Welcome to The Shannon Rollason Podcast, a swimming podcast like no other. The Shannon Rollason Podcast is back in 2023 and on a new home here on the Off The Blocks Swimming Podcast network. This week Shannon and I discuss his visitors to the AIS this week Matt Ballin and Lee Briars from the Brisbane Broncos, what he learned from their time down in Canberra and how coaches can learn a lot from other sports and other industries around leadership and the art of coaching. We also discuss the observations of Leigh Nugent from the World Champs in Fukuoka. Shannon gives us a sneak peak behind the curtain at a presentation he and some coaches heard from Leigh, around trends coming out of Japan. and we cover this weekends NSW Senior State SC Champs, and how his athletes are tracking, including Bronte Campbell.
