Abstract:
Applied sports science is a relatively new and upcoming facet of sports performance and sports medicine. ATs are now required to collect and analyze data from a variety of sources, including wearable and performance technology. While many of the tech companies provide analytic tools and algorithms to help interpret the data, what is missing is how the AT needs to consume the data and then disseminate to appropriate stakeholders. Often the needs of different stakeholders are not the same, therefore, the AT must be able to communicate effectively and efficiently with all parties. The purpose of this presentation is to provide ATs with valuable information on how to effectively communicate performance data to a variety of stakeholders.
Learning Objectives:
- Identify the key stakeholders in sports science data information.
- Describe the information each stakeholder needs as it relates to sports science.
- Explain what sports science data means to each stakeholder.
