In this episode of the Pacey Performance Podcast I am speaking to a great friend of mine, Chris Tombs. Chris and I have become good friends after he appeared on episode 8 of the podcast. It was a pleasure to get Chris on again and chat about his journey from working in the U.S in rugby as a high performance manager to coming back to the U.K and working in cricket. I love Chris' perspective on S&C and there are so many pearls of wisdom in this episode.
