JB MORIN
EVOLUTION OF SPEED
Saturday keynote & practical: “Speed” is a key component of physical performance in many sports. The ability to generate and handle speed in running movements has been the focus of both academic research and practice applications within the last 10 years. This keynote and associated workshops will present the main research and applications around sprint acceleration mechanics and performance, individual profiling and training methods. Data collection and analysis with laboratory and field methods will be discussed to provide a comprehensive views of the “why, what and how” individual sprint mechanics can be used for speed development.
JB is currently a Professor at the University of Saint-Etienne (France) and Director of Sports Science. Involved in research and teaching projects in France, New Zealand and Loughborough in the UK, Jean-Benoit’s (JB’s) field of research is mainly human locomotion and performance, with specific interest in running biomechanics and maximal power movements (sprint, jumps). He has edited a textbook and published over 170 peer-reviewed scientific papers and consults for professional athletes and sport organisations.

BRIDGITTE SWALES
HOW TO OPTIMISE FOR HEALTH, STRENGTH AND LONGEVITY.
Finish Strong: How to Optimise for Health, Strength and Longevity. Human ageing. It’s inevitable and complex and will be a different experience for each one of us. And while we’re all living longer, the extra life years are not always spent in good health. Increasing healthspan, with a focus on multidimensional health, can
improve and support health during ageing. Building and maintaining
strength is one of the highest priorities. It can reduce chronic
disease risk, combat age-related muscle mass and strength loss,
enhance mood and quality of life, and improve balance and movement
confidence. And it is never too late to start. Even for the oldest old
(85+), and those living with frailty, chronic disease and cognitive impairment.
This session will explore multidimensional health and ageing, and how resistance training is both effective preventative medicine and a robust treatment strategy. And how it can have a transformative effect on people’s quality of life, whatever their age and ability.
Bridgitte has a lifelong commitment to all-things strength. She has a
proven track record in coaching, teaching and lifelong learning in
academic, commercial, competitive sport, and military environments.
She holds master's degrees in both Sport and Exercise Science and
Performance Coaching and is currently studying for her PhD in 'Resistance Training for Frail Older Adults' at the University of Stirling, Scotland. Bridgitte is interested in the impact of lifestyle
factors, particularly physical activity, on healthy ageing and
longevity including physical, cognitive, and emotional
well-being. She's super thankful for over 15 years of first-class
learning, coach education and support from the UKSCA as a tutor,
assessor, and coach. Predictably, she's rather partial to a decent
espresso and a high-quality barbell.

FIONA SCOTT
THE EVOLUTION OF PHYSICAL PREPARATION IN HIGH PERFORMANCE FEMALE GOLF.
Professional golf has transformed over the past decade and ladies golf is no different, with players hitting the ball further than ever before, producing clubhead speeds regularly over 100mph, and competing for some of the highest prize purses in womens sport.
Whilst this growth is a huge success for the sport, it brings its own challenges for the athlete, which include; congested annual tournament schedules, substantial travel commitments, increased psychosocial pressure and a need for performance and medical services so they can remain on top in an increasingly competitive environment. This, along with the fact that research in female golf is vastly lagging behind their male counterparts, has led to the formation of the Ladies European Tour Performance Institute (LETPI), which aims to help players navigate the health and performance challenges of modern golf.
Fiona's presentation will showcase the development of high-performance support in elite amateur and professional ladies golf through the LETPI and highlight some of the exciting plans for the future
Fiona Scott is Head of Physical Performance at Performance Herts, University of Hertfordshire, where she has overseen S&C programmes for sports as they’ve evolved over the years including Arsenal Women’s FC, England Women’s FA, England Squash, Mavericks Superleague Netball and multiple Olympic, Paralympic and Commonwealth Games athletes. In this role, Fiona also leads on postgraduate physiotherapy and sports science degree programmes, manages a successful practicioner development pathway and has grown the department four fold in her tenure.
Fiona is also the Head of S&C for the Ladies European Tour (LET) where she works alongside other practicioners in the LET Performance Institute to optimise performance in a sport with a challenging annual schedule of tournaments and travel.
Alongside this, Fiona is an S&C Coach for England Golf, involved in research in female golf and at the University and co-authored the ‘The Female Golfer’ chapter in the book ‘S&C for golf’.

CHRIS BISHOP
SELECTING METRICS THAT MATTER: COMPARING THE USE OF THE COUNTERMOVEMENT JUMP FOR PERFORMANCE PROFILING, NEUROMUSCULAR FATIGUE MONITORING, AND INJURY REHABILITATION TESTING
Friday and Saturday sessions:
Jump testing is a common modality of assessment for practitioners, given it is time-efficient, often produces reliable data, and shows strong associations with measures of athletic performance. However, with the use of force platforms now on the rise, practitioners face a number of challenges when utilising this technology. This session aims to provide a framework for how we select metrics when utilising the counter movement jump (CMJ), noting that jump testing is frequently used as a proxy measure for athletic performance. In addition, this session will provide some suggestions on how monitoring particular metrics may change, when the purpose of using the CMJ also changes (as outlined above). Finally, although the bulk of this presentation will be centred on the CMJ, it will conclude by providing comparable information for the drop jump test as well, showcasing the process for more than one type of jump assessment.
Chris is Associate Professor of S&C and Head of Department at the London Sport Institute, Middlesex University. Chris has published over 250 peer-reviewed publications, edited two text books and is currently on the Medical and Scientific Committee for the R&A, DP World Tour and Ladies European Tour, in professional golf.

Jump testing is a common modality of assessment for practitioners, given it is time-efficient, often produces reliable data, and shows strong associations with measures of athletic performance. However, with the use of force platforms now on the rise, practitioners face a number of challenges when utilising this technology. This session aims to provide a framework for how we select metrics when utilising the counter movement jump (CMJ), noting that jump testing is frequently used as a proxy measure for athletic performance. In addition, this session will provide some suggestions on how monitoring particular metrics may change, when the purpose of using the CMJ also changes (as outlined above). Finally, although the bulk of this presentation will be centred on the CMJ, it will conclude by providing comparable information for the drop jump test as well, showcasing the process for more than one type of jump assessment.

SHAUN MCLAREN
LEVERAGING DATA AS A SECRET WEAPON IN STRENGTH & CONDITIONING.
Technological advancements throughout the past two decades have paved way for strength and conditioning (S&C) coaches to obtain greater insights into an athlete’s training and how they are responding to a programme. Naturally, this has created an overwhelming amount of data that practitioners must handle and make sense of. Skills to manage, process and communicate data are therefore essential for the modern-day S&C coach. Join Shaun for this session, where he will provide a critical overview of the strategies and skills needed to maximise the use of data in S&C. Drawing on best-practice guidelines and real-world ‘tried and tested’ examples, Shaun will discuss how to effectively and efficiently transform data into meaningful insights by: winning the wrangling wrestle, building powerful visualisations, supercharging statistics, enhancing information communication, and blending the numbers with the art of coaching for a human-focused approach.
Shaun is a S&C coach at Newcastle Falcons. Through employment and consultancy, he has previously worked with UEFA, England and GB Rugby League, The NBA, MLS Next, The Premier League, Aston Villa FC, Brisbane Broncos, and Nottingham Rugby, to name a few. Shaun is also a Professor in Practice with Durham University and a Visiting Research Fellow with Manchester Metropolitan University. He is an editor for Science and Medicine in Football and BASES, having published over 60 research papers in applied sports physiology and performance.

THE NEEED FOR SPEED: ECCENTRIC TRAINING.
In recent years the importance of eccentric training, with a focus on neurophysiological aspects, has gained growing attention. This session aims to bridge the gap between science and practice by sharing insights from case studies, sessions, and research, equipping coaches with knowledge for immediate application. Neural adaptations during initial muscle damage show increased motor-unit activity, engaging slow-twitch fibres and improving muscle synchronisation for future eccentric exercises. Repeated eccentric contractions distribute force across more fibres, possibly enhancing function. The session provides a comprehensive view of eccentric training, covering current knowledge and future directions.
Jonathan Hughes, PhD, ASCC is a Senior Lecturer in Strength and Conditioning at Cardiff Metropolitan University and an active S&C coach working with multiple sports and athletes, with over 20 years’ experience. His research interests surround the influence of eccentric training modalities on physical performance and explore the neuromuscular mechanisms underpinning eccentric training effectiveness for athletic development and reduction of injury risk for athletes. To date, he has published more than 50 peer-reviewed manuscripts and 4 book chapters across the topics of strength and conditioning and eccentric training. Dr Hughes’ research influences the programming and athletic development of multiple elite level athletes ranging from team sports to individual endurance athletes.
