Summary

With my experience of playing football for as long as I can remember. Analysis became a huge part of my life while representing my country- Wales at at all the age groups. It was a key session that we would do religiously while preparing for a game. During my experience playing at both U17 and U19 Euro qualifiers it became an even more crucial aspect of what we would do.

I began analysing my own games while playing in the Welsh Premier League for Barry Town United Women at the age of 16. Although it was basic analysis such as individual analysis of my own games while creating a 'What went well' and an 'Even better if' sheet. My analysis has improved over time as I am now an intern alongside some of the best analysts in the Championship.

For my placement module with my University I have been an assistant analyst for Cardiff City U21's During my time there I have done:

  • Opposition analysis.
  • Filmed training.
  • Filmed games.
  • Matchday coding while filming.
  • Filmed walkthroughs using a drone.
  • Analysed individual clips.
  • Created player highlight films ready for loan moves.

Most of these activities have been accomplished within the U21 system. But more recently I have been able to be involved with Cardiff City first team through beginning to sit in on unit and team meetings.

Working in a high pressure environment has taught me how to balance workloads of university assignments and also ensuring that I meet all deadlines for the U21's team.
