Paul Hall – obsessive

Paul Hall is the coach of Louis Smith and Dan Keatings.

… (he) declares himself to be an obsessive:

“It is the most necessary component in order to get the right result – always needing to improve and look for the next challenge”.

Exactly. Obsession is about a passion for learning, for knowledge, for detail, for hard work, and most importantly a passion for finding ways to beat the guy you are going head to head with. …

What’s Paul’s role during the Olympics in his home city?

Thanks fanstrike.

Update: Surprise. Surprise. Louis Smith scored 14.367 Horizontal Bar at English Championships. That makes him a reasonable back-up on that apparatus for the Olympics Team competition.

Kristian Thomas hit 6/6 to win, 90.901 AA.
