We have something a little different for you this week as we explore the development of young sportspeople with Dr Richard Buscombe. 

Richard is the Programme Leader for Sport and Exercise Science at the University of East London (UEL). He is a British Association of Sport and Exercise Sciences accredited scientist and conducts research in sport and exercise psychology. Richard has a keen interest in tennis where he supports player development and provides coach education.

The podcast explores wellbeing, the role of parents in early development, specialisation in sport and how a dual-career approach works for professional athletes.
