In this episode of the Pacey Performance Podcast, I have the pleasure in speaking to Head of Performance & Rugby Operations at Dragons Rugby, Huw Bevan. This episode is the first one where I have been contacted by a head coach saying 'you need to get our guy on, he's brilliant' and I think that sums up the main takeaways from this podcast. Huw is a person who has created lasting relationships with the coaches he has worked under and due to that has managed to make an impact. Hope you enjoy the podcast!

- Who is Huw Bevan (background, experience, and current role)

In this episode of the Pacey Performance Podcast, I have the pleasure in speaking to Teacher & Coach at Parkway Central High School, Ryan Banta. Ryan has written extensively on sprinting, acceleration and plyometrics on various websites including elitetrack.com, just-fly-sports.com, speedendurance.com, scienceofrunning.com & simplifaster.com. But as well as being a writer, Ryan is coaching high school athletes daily as well as teaching in the same school. Moving away from the elite coaching space, I felt Ryan was a fantastic example to get on the podcast to showcase the great work that is going on on the youth amateur level.
In this episode, you will learn -
- Who is Ryan Banta (background, experience, and current role)?
- Training large groups of sprinters
- Evaluating athletes with limited data & tech
- Periodisation of plyometrics
