He was selected for UK Coaching's Into High Performance programme, which supports coaches with the potential to transition and thrive in the high-performance coaching arena.
Mathew says he fell into the programme after he received an email from Kurt Linley - people development manager at British Shooting - who was asking coaches if they wanted to grow and develop, of course, Mathew replied and said that he did and a few weeks later, Into High Performance was mentioned. Mathew said he would like to be put forward for the programme and it was all go from there.
Halfway through the programme, Mathew took the time out to talk to us about his coaching journey so far and why he's gaining more confidence.
