Fantastic data analysis session with our 2nd year @Marjon_FBSci students, exploring z-scores and t-scores to present visually engaging player profiles. @ChrisSmietanka @M_Blackwell82 @MarjonSSER

Last week we welcomed Notre Dame for a @MarjonOutreach workshop. Learners were tasked with creating a sports drink brand, researching ingredients, designing a poster and developing an advert! We had so much fun and the learners were fantastic! @ChrisSmietanka #activelearning

[Mark Blackwell @M_Blackwell82]

Today we welcomed prospective students onto campus. They undertook practical activities in lab & got to engage with our brilliant staff @ChrisSmietanka @Benanniss & current students @marjonuni @Marjon_FBSci @MarjonSES @MarjonSSER @MarjonOutreach #applicantday #marjon

This week our 2nd year @Marjon_FBSci delivered a practical session to @ArgyleTrust football students. The session consisted of a series of physical performance tests - Designed to inform individual player development @PillePP @Benanniss @marjonuni @MarjonOutreach @MarjonSSER

[Mark Blackwell @M_Blackwell82]

Brilliant session with our 3rd years @Marjon_FBSci . Conversations were focused on the psychological considerations of players moving into the Professional Development Phase #activelearning #sportpsych #footballscience @marjonuni @ChrisSmietanka @Benanniss @MarjonOutreach

[Mark Blackwell @M_Blackwell82]

Huge congratulations to Jamie, the staff & players of @PAFCAcademy for their league win yesterday 🏆. Our @Marjon_FBSci students have loved the opportunities to work with the players this season. Look forward to seeing you all on campus next week @marjonuni #leaguewinners 💚🤝

[Mark Blackwell @M_Blackwell82]

Excellent session with our 1st year @MarjonSES students. Their engagement was brilliant. This meant they were able to produce some very good group work & discussions around biomechanics & performance analysis @ChrisSmietanka @Benanniss @MarjonSSER @MarjonOutreach @marjonuni

Practical assessments for our 2nd year @Marjon_FBSci students today. They used high speed cameras & force plates to analyse technique. The data they collected will be used in a lab report @MarjonSES @marjonuni @MarjonSSER @MarjonOutreach @ChrisSmietanka @Benanniss ⚽️👩‍🎓💪🏻

[Mark Blackwell @M_Blackwell82]

Biomechanics lab busy again today. 2nd year @Marjon_FBSci & 3rd year @MarjonSES students preparing for their upcoming practical assessments. Thank you to @ArgyleTrust football students who took part in the practicals @marjonuni @MarjonSSER @MarjonOutreach #biomechanics ⚽️💪🏻👩‍🎓

[Mark Blackwell @M_Blackwell82]

This morning we welcomed @PAFCAcademy U18’s onto campus. Our 3rd yr @Marjon_FBSci planned & delivered a series of physical performance tests #footballscience #isokinetic #changeofdirection @marjonuni @MarjonSSER @Benanniss @ChrisSmietanka ⚽️💪🏻👩‍🎓

[S Shire PE @SShire_PE]

We then spent some time in the @marjonuni Sports Lab with @Benanniss & @ChrisSmietanka where students used the state of the art facilities to assess their knee stability 🤩🔬

[Mark Blackwell @M_Blackwell82]

Our 2nd year @MarjonSES students using the force plates today. They were tasked with collecting vertical force data, from a sport specific movement. We asked them to be creative & these are some of the results 🧠💪🏻👩‍🎓@Marjon_FBSci @marjonuni @MarjonSSER @Benanniss #biomechanicslab

[Mark Blackwell @M_Blackwell82]

Today our 2nd year @Marjon_FBSci students analysed the biomechanics involved in jumping & landing techniques. The students used force plates & high speed cameras to collect their data ⚽️👩‍🎓💪🏻@marjonuni @MarjonSSER @MarjonSES @Benanniss @ChrisSmietanka #footballscience

MSc Sport & Exercise Science student Gareth Law - Head of Physiotherapy at Plymouth Argyle F.C conducting testing for his studies.
He used the Isokinetic Dynamometer to test quadricep strength and single leg jumps using force decks and 2D cameras to monitor landing kinematics.

[Mark Blackwell @M_Blackwell82]

Was great to welcome year 12 & 13 students from Kingsbridge school today. As part of their visit, the students took part in some performance analysis tasks & presented their data back to the group @Marjon_FBSci @marjonuni @MarjonOutreach @MarjonSES @MarjonSSER 👩‍🎓✅🎥
