These sessions involve the use of the extensive analysis system, involving a series of above and below water cameras that allow the coaches and I to identify technique inefficiencies in order to improve the swimmer’s performance.

As part of my role within the British Swimming team, we aid the development of equipment and software through validation and day-to-day use of the system. This ensures the continued development of the system in order to provide the best analysis support to our athletes.

The highlights of this opportunity have been the chance to support the Loughborough University swimmers in their preparation for the Olympics and attend the Swimming European Championships in Budapest to support the analysis team.
