Australia Day Two

Busy day. Presented on Dryland Training to the NSWIS Swim Coaches in the morning and then to the NSWIS S&C Staff in the afternoon. I think a real key to their system is a true applied sports science approach. The sports scientist at the institute’s main job is to sever the coaches and athletes not produce research for publication. They solve problems and digest current research that can be applied. Very different from most situations in the American system where the sport scientists must publish or perish and chase grants to do it. Today I will be presenting the “Child to Champion seminar all day. Tonight will go to a Rugby League game in Olympic Stadium and catch up with Grant Duthie who has done some real neat stuff on match analysis.
