In this episode of the Pacey Performance Podcast, I am speaking to Head of Athletic Performance at Connacht Rugby, Dave Howarth. This podcast sees me speaking to a member of staff from a third Irish provincial team after Adam Sheehan and Aled Walters appeared from Munster and Joe McGinley and Peter Tierney appeared from Leinster. Dave has a really interesting background having moved from Australia to the US, working for Sparta Science and onto the Oklahoma City Thunders in the NBA. From there, Dave moved over to Ireland to work with Connacht Rugby so naturally we spoke about that journey and how working in the NBA has affected his practice in Pro14 rugby.
If you enjoyed this episode you may enjoy episodes with Nic Gill, Tom Batchelor & Nick Winkelman.
I hope you enjoy this episode with Dave Howarth.
