Would you be interested in a LIVE YouTube video
I created this little video today after last nights get together and it got me thinking that it might be fun to do a LIVE version tomorrow. Please watch and let me know if you think this would be good value to you as a player and I’ll set up a LIVE for tomorrow evening Serious About Pétanque?

I just wanted to let you know @Kevin ORourke that this was one of my favorite videos. I haven't found much like it in english online, it's fascinating to hear how really experienced players see the game unfold. I'd love to see more, thanks.
Just get it
Really looking forward to read it. Totally excited 🎉

Started my six-week journal today. I feel like reading the prompts and knowing the philosophy behind this training method put me in a much more zen sort of state of mind for triplet play this morning. As a result I felt more in each swing and stayed positive and focused throughout.
Do you trust your gesture?
I’m thinking of doing a video about how to improve trust in your shot. Drop me a comment if you have problems with this and a constantly tinkering or trying to fix it.

What I think I know is best is not what gets high % results at the moment, it's all too new. This makes it hard to trust the new way under pressure.
Weekend reports for your competitions
Let’s have your weekend reports with your wins or lessons. For me, I didn’t really play at all apart from one fun melee which I don’t really count and it was just mixing it up. I was filming the rest of the time.

I mentioned in my introduction that my club and I did well today in La Liga Provincial against Marbella but it was a mixed day for me personally. The pistes were crowded so I didn't have time to practice prior and as a new player (1.5yrs) I know that is very important to calm my nerves and get in a rhythm. First match was very rough and somewhat embarrassing but my team pulled me through, second one I played very well and we shut them out, third I played more or less like the beginner I am but again we came through with the win. I think as a new player it's very difficult to just come in cold full of confidence, I must dial things in with some practice prior to match time otherwise inconsistentancy reigns supreme. Also my lack of decent Spanish or French is a real handicap in team communication.

@Kevin ORourke Perhaps on regular club days I should only throw a couple times before the games start and take that practice time crutch out of the equation so there is one less thing to throw me off when it's not possible to have a 20min warm up.
Introduction
Hello all, just joined and spent some time reading comments last night before today's tournament against Marbella. We managed to win all three and the club went 7-2 so thanks for the tips! I am the weakest of the competitive players in our travel league and the newest to the game so plenty to learn from the rest of you, thanks for having me👍
