Welcome to the coaching knife when we cut to the root of the matter. In this episode, we speak to Tom Carter, Head of Athletic Performance Australian Women's 7s. Focusing on high-performance coaching, we are going to cut to the root on why high-performance coaching is different to normal coaching. 

Tom is a former professional rugby and captained the Australian Super rugby team, the Waratahs. He has worked as a high-performance coach across numerous sports, including cricket and rugby.

His philosophy is physical performance utilises a comprehensive understanding of sports science, psychology of behavioural change and elite sports performance, yet recognises that more is necessary for supreme athletic excellence.

Essentially, underpinning all the above is the human element, about forming a life-long relationship with an athlete, a genuine relationship based on the exact needs of an individual athlete and what it takes to help them excel to the best of their athletic and human capacity.
