Coach Educator — to Coach — to Player: this seminar focuses on the evolving role of analysis as a teaching and learning tool to enhance performance improvement in Sport.

We’re delighted to welcome Prof. Chris Cushion from Loughborough University to Dublin to speak about the importance of coach behaviour analysis and how Leicester City Football Club are using this to their advantage. Chris will be joined by one of the club’s coach analysts.

Three-time All Ireland winner, Peter Canavan will be sharing his experiences of using analysis with the Tyrone U21’s who won the 2015 All Ireland Title. Runner-up PFAI Manager of Year, Shane Keegan who led Wexford Youths to the League of Ireland First Division Title will discuss his coaching process using analysis. Importantly there will also be a player’s perspective, shared by former inter-county footballer Dermot Carlin, to highlight the link between coach educator, coach, player and the role of analysis as a teaching and learning tool in sport.
