Description
Leicester City’s league title was widely seen as one of the biggest upsets in sporting history. But was it really that surprising? Christian Barton (La Trobe University) talks to Dr Paul Balsom, the Head of Sports Science at Leicester City and analyst with the Swedish National Football Team.
In this podcast, Paul explains how teamwork and culture led to players avoiding the medical room. We then go on to discuss the role of evidence-based medicine in sports, and how the ideas employed by Leicester can be transitioned between sports. Lastly, the conversation moves on to the ongoing season, which will see an increased number of matches for the team and how to manage this load.
