For my classification research, I have gathered expert opinions on the current classification system through an international-scale online survey, while conducting Paralympic performance analysis during the most recent Games.

I’ve also developed an individual test battery for goalball performance and am currently using this to collect data that will highlight the relationship between level of vision and goalball performance. This process involves travelling around the country and working alongside some great goalball athletes and coaches, who have been fantastic in engaging with the project.

While studying at Loughborough, I have also worked on other research projects outside of my PhD. These opportunities to collaborate with world-leading academic researchers and international organisations are invaluable.
