🌍💜 World Narcolepsy Day - 22nd September 2026 💜🌍

Do you live with narcolepsy? Or do you know someone who does?
Today is about awareness, understanding, and support for everyone affected by this often-misunderstood condition.

Narcolepsy is a chronic neurological disorder that affects around 1 in 2,500 people, that’s approximately 30,000 people in the UK! It disrupts the brain’s ability to regulate sleep and wake cycles, leading to symptoms such as:
😴 Excessive Daytime Sleepiness – overwhelming tiredness and sudden sleep attacks
❗ Cataplexy – sudden muscle weakness triggered by emotions (narcolepsy type 1)
🌙 Disrupted Night-time Sleep – broken or restless sleep
👁️ Hallucinations & Sleep Paralysis – vivid dream-like experiences at sleep onset or waking

💜 If you live with narcolepsy: Know that you are not alone. Support is out there.

💜 If you don’t have narcolepsy: You can make a real difference.
✔️ Reach out to friends, family, or colleagues who live with narcolepsy
✔️ Volunteer your time with Narcolepsy UK
✔️ Donate to help fund research, support networks, and resources

Every act of kindness, and every effort to spread awareness, helps build a world where people with narcolepsy are understood, supported, and empowered.

✨ Together, we can make sure no one with narcolepsy feels invisible or alone. ✨

From Matt Diesel Last night was exactly why we wanted to start this conversation. We brought together coaches, parents, athletes, mental performance professionals, psychologists, leaders and people who simply care about where youth sports is heading.

And what came out of the conversation wasn’t about lowering standards or making sports easier. It was about creating better environments for kids to grow.

Three things really stood out to me:

1. Mindset and Mental Performance Training should start earlier. 

We don’t have to wait until athletes are teenagers and struggling with confidence, pressure or failure to teach them how to think, respond and compete. Those skills can begin being developed when they are young.

2. Kids need unstructured competitive play.

Not every rep needs a coach. Not every game needs a ranking. Not every moment needs to be organized. Kids need opportunities to compete, create, solve problems, argue a little, figure things out and simply PLAY.

3. The pressure in youth sports is real.

Expectations. Social media. Travel teams. Rankings. Scholarships. Comparison. Fear of falling behind.
Our athletes are carrying more than we sometimes realize. The answer isn’t to eliminate competition. It’s to help kids become equipped to handle it.

Challenge them. Develop them. Teach them resilience. Let them fail. Help them respond.

And through all of it...Keep them loving the game!

A huge thank you to everyone who showed up, contributed and was willing to have the conversation, and to Tyler Kennedy for sharing his experience and perspective with the room. I believe last night was another step in that direction.
