DARREN DEVANEY

Traditionally, the perception of performance psychology support has involved working one-to-one directly with players. However, psychology support within football has increasingly shifted toward a more systemic approach, including working with and through the Multi-disciplinary team. This presentation will discuss perspectives on how this level of support may prove more impactful than working primarily with players, and discuss some practical examples of effectively positioning psychology support in such a way.
