00:00For athletes to climb to another gear, there must be cohesion and a willingness by all involved.
00:05Head coach of the National Squash team, Ryan Jagasa, says they are embracing the exchange of ideas by the experts.
00:11He's come with some new philosophies or some new thoughts,
00:14so now we have to sit on and really think about how we can merge what he's just taught us with what we currently know.
00:20So it'll take us a little while to really formulate exactly how we're going to combine the two.
00:25Jagasa has worked with several top players over the years and he was happy to introduce a few more.
00:30So this is Ria Khan, current world record holder.
00:34She has 19 national championships, which is more than anyone else in the world.
00:38And this is Peter Pretising, a former national player and also a world master's representative for Trinidad and Tobago.
00:45And what of the students? How receptive are they to what is being shared?
00:50Well, there's room for improvement everywhere, all the time, so I hope they can critique what I'm doing wrong and start to do it right.
00:57I think it's a great experience, so there was more experience to come back and share with the juniors and I believe also the seniors.
01:06So I think it gives us a chance to tap into their wealth of knowledge and we could only improve from it.
01:13Time will reveal just how quickly they adapt.
