Hi, My name is Sam!
I am a Sports Performance Analyst
I have been a Sports Performance Analyst for 3 years. I have experience helping coaches and performance staff make faster and better informed decisions at an international, elite, and university level. I specialise in video and data analysis in a range of different sports, from Football to Netball, delivering insights that are practical, easy to implement, and built around what your team needs.
Professional Background
I have worked with clubs in Super League, Elite Academies, and Development Squads across Rubgy League, Football and Netball. Over the years, I have from an assistant analyst role to now leading a full performance team at the University of Salford, managing student's analysis workflows, and presenting directly to head coaches, captains and squads of players.
Core Skills and Tools
I am prolific in Nac Sports Scout coding software, Microsoft Products, and iMovie. I have created code in Hudl Sportscode, Power BI and Python at the University of Salford, as well as using Catapult GPS/ load data.
What I actually do
I create match analysis reports using statistics and videos, analyse opposition, and create individual review videos with statistics. I will also create mid season and end of season player reviews. I deliver work that is easy to understand for coaches and players by using simple metrics, graphics, and videos.
