I am delighted to announce today a partnership with my 147academy and a leading Irish sports mind-set company Serenity of Mind Sports.
Book a Session
All my 147academy players will now have the opportunity, to book lessons and work with Evan and Jamie on improving their overall game. If you read below what Brendan O Donoghue has to say about the quality of support from Serenity of Mind Sports, then you will understand what is behind his snooker success.
Who are Serenity of Mind Sports
(Evan & Jamie) McGrath are two brothers from a town in Waterford called Cappoquin in the Republic of Ireland.
They both had issues with their own Mindset in sport growing up. They struggled with self-doubt, lack of confidence and overthinking, both went on a journey learning from the best in the area.
This is why they have compassion and empathy for athletes who are going through the same issues. They work currently with elite athletes from GAA, Cricket, Athletics, Soccer and Snooker with 7 time National Irish Champion Brendan O Donoghue from Nenagh.
Coaching Success
I have been coaching for over 25 yrs and I am proud of the talented players from around the world I have worked with. Many have gone on to win some of the biggest amateur snooker titles in Ireland, Europe and around the world.
Their mind set was one of the key ingredient needed to help them achieve this success and some had mind coaches and some did not. Having this Irish company linked to my 147 academy will help me develop more players to reach their potential in a more professional way.
Serenity of Mind Sports have also agreed to work with Snooker & Billiards Ireland National Teams ahead of the 2025 HIBSF Home Internationals in Leeds in August.
My own Journey
The last few years I have been on my own journey to lose weight and get fitter. Serenity of Mind Sport has given me a better mind set about my lifestyle and my own coaching skills on and off the table. I now feel more confident that I can take my coaching to a new level.
Sponsoring High Break – US Snooker Masters
Serenity of Mind Sport will also sponsored the High Break Award for the upcoming US Snooker Masters. Their $500 sponsorship will be awarded to the player who achieves the highest break in this inaugural event next month.
7 Time Irish Champion
147Academy player Brendan O Donoghue said ”Over the years, working with Serenity of Mind has completely transformed my approach to snooker and life beyond the table. I have developed a level of mental toughness I never thought possible, allowing me to stay composed under pressure and find that extra gear when it matters most.
One of the biggest shifts has been in how I handle setbacks. Instead of being overly critical of myself after a loss, I have learned to show self-compassion, using each experience as a stepping stone rather than a roadblock. This has not only improved my consistency in competition but also given me a healthier, more balanced perspective off the table.
The work I have done with Serenity of Mind has had a profound impact on my game, my mind-set, and my overall well-being. I feel more in control, more resilient, and more confident than ever before. If you are looking to take your mental game to the next level. I cannot recommend them highly enough.
Everyone knows how much I respect PJ Nolan and how much he has helped me and many others with his fantastic coaching skills. He is the only Snooker coach for me as he totally understands how to get the player on line and training properly to reach their true potential.
I am so delighted to see this new calibration with PJ’s 147 academy and Serenity of Mind Sports. Players within his academy now have the opportunity to work with world class coaches to help them achieve even more success on and off the table.”
