This week's guest is Colin Lewin
Colin was Arsenal Football Club’s physiotherapist from 2005 to 2018 - making that 22 years of front line medical support in elite football. Acting both as a physio and later as Head of Medical Services, Colin oversaw the creation of Arsenal’s outstanding purpose-built medical facilities in 2012 the £17 million player performance centre and implementing the Research & Development arm to the medical team.
Colin now runs the Lewin Clinic in Essex with and consults with a number of football, NBA, NHL, NFL, Major League Baseball teams.
Colin has such depth of experience and has seen a radical re-development of support teams in football, under the guidance of one of the pioneers in the game Arsene Wenger. This came out in our conversation with real perspective that I think is necessary not only as club’s grow and get caught in a performance science and medicine arms race but also balancing the need to actually do impactful work (not just do what a player or coach fancies doing). This is typified by the growth of independent player support teams.
I’ve always enjoyed conversations with Colin, he has a relaxed down-to-earth approach, that is so easy to imagine gelling with an elite team. His grounded self-awareness comes through this conversation, being prepared to just say, “I don’t know” but equally with a strength of opinion where he sees support teams misfiring. With that you’ll hear his wealth of wisdom and passion to make the game of football better.
