‘We’re just ready to go out, have some fun and not to worry too much,’ the defender added. Dalsgaard insists the mood is calmer at Brentford despite frustration of no promotion last term ‘The vibe in the squad is different this year, it just feels more relaxed and more calm,’ Dalsgaard added.Įven in recent weeks, as stakes have swelled, players have been staying behind after training for several hours - to play table tennis or to chat over coffee. Instead of stressing about righting the wrongs of last season, Frank’s side focus on maintaining ‘joy and excitement’. The constant aim? ‘Happy people,’ Dalsgaard said. Unsurprisingly, Caulfield has been especially busy in recent weeks. There’s a lot of things we can share with him that doesn’t go to anyone else.’ Henrik Dalsgaard (middle) has praised the important backroom staff available at Brentford ‘Obviously, due to Covid, some players haven’t been able to see their family, so it’s hard. ‘Whatever you want to talk about, we talk about that and take the heavy stuff from your heart. ‘He has a walk around the pitches and we just talk,’ Dalsgaard said.

And, naturally, it's an added bonus if they look good, too (we particularly like the wooden games for this reason). It also goes without saying that when buying garden toys they're likely to spend a lot of time outdoors, so durability is a must. The best garden games are well-designed, simple to construct and attention-grabbing the sort of games that will interest kids of all ages and that won't get boring too quickly. Rather than hunching over a board indoors, children must stand and walk around, they handle larger playing pieces and they do all of this whilst out in the fresh air and sunshine. Giant outdoor games are a great way to encourage kids to spend time out of doors.Įssentially, they are just scaled-up versions of classic games we know and love - Jenga, dominos or chess, for example - but the extra-large factor adds an element of fun and promotes more active engagement.
