Lingesh has coached soccer players from grassroots to elite, and the child he plans for first is the one who dreads PE. His subject is physical literacy: using the body well, and keeping the will to use it, which outlives any team a child makes or misses. He builds a lesson so that the least confident student in the room has something to do that is hard for them and within their reach. The children who already compete find him too, since he has coached at academy level and run strength and conditioning for student athletes.
