Team – group of individuals working together towards a common goal. A challenge to staff MDT is ensuring our support is directed correctly to a team full of players with individual needs.
This talk will explore the role of Fitness staff and how they can work together with Football coaches for the good of the player and overall holistic performance. Case examples will be outlined from both 1st Team and Academy football. Our time with these players is precious, how can we make the environment as challenging, enjoyable, and integrated as possible to aid player/ team development.
