Having access to an unbelievable placement opportunity at Leicester City Football Club probably played the biggest part in securing my full-time role, as I managed to secure a job at the club.
A real highlight of the placement was working with highly trained coaches and analysts. Providing support for Premier League 2, Premier League U18 and Premier League Cup fixtures really allowed me to build up a detailed tactical and technical grasp of football.
Developing a knowledge and understanding of the analysis workflows implemented at a top academy was very beneficial. It gave me great exposure to learn more about pre-match, post-match and live analysis, specifically individual player development.
These are all things that have really benefited me moving into full-time employment.
