Podcasts about Sale Sharks

Send us a textWhat happens when your pro sports career ends with a tweet?Tom Morton found out the hard way. While playing rugby in New Zealand, he saw on social media that his contract with Sale Sharks wasn't being renewed. No phone call. No meeting. Just a public post that blindsided him completely.From training with England's under-20s to waking up across the world with no contract and no plan, Tom shares how he rebuilt not just his career, but also his mindset.We talk about what it's really like to start over, why feedback in sport hits different, what the corporate world could learn from it, and how he went from rugby boots to boardrooms without losing who he is in the process.In this episode, we talk about:- Why sport doesn't prepare you for silence, stillness, or starting over- The brutal moment Tom learned his rugby career was over — via social media- How a career in finance became Plan B (without a university degree)- The role of family, self-awareness, and timing in building a new identity- What mentoring young athletes taught him about letting go — and moving forward- Why the corporate world still struggles to give feedback — and how sport gets it right

Mike and Elliott celebrate one of the great semi final wins at Welford Road after the boys run out 21-16 winners in a pant-shreddingly tense win over a tough Sale Sharks outfit. We ask if the boys will finally get the respect they deserve, herald some legends who left the hallowed turf for the final time and give the seal of approval for a new song for Adam Radwan.Bath Preview later this week!

In this week's episode of the Science for Sport podcast, host Richard Graves is joined by Leicester Tigers' Head of Performance, Matt Parr, a former professional rugby player turned strength and conditioning expert with experience across both rugby union and league. Matt shares his fascinating journey from the pitch to the performance department, offering valuable insights drawn from his time at Leicester Tigers and Catalan Dragons. With a career that's spanned both codes of rugby, Matt dives into the key physical demands of each sport and how training must adapt to meet them. He also lifts the lid on what really goes into building strength, power, and robustness across a long and gruelling season. In this episode, you'll learn: * The real physical differences between rugby union and rugby league – and why it's not just “the same shaped ball” * How to build meaningful preseason plans that lay the foundation for success * Why strength underpins everything, and how it connects to power and injury prevention * The importance of athlete conversations over just relying on data * How Matt handles return-to-play protocols and balances performance with player wellbeing Whether you're a coach in pro sport or working at grassroots level, this conversation is packed with practical takeaways and thought-provoking reflections on what it really takes to keep athletes performing at their best.

Four-time Olympic champion sprinter Michael Johnson joins Gabby and Mark for an exclusive interview ahead of the third 'Grand Slam Track' event of the year. Everyone wants to see the 100m final at the Olympics, but how many people tune into athletics outside the main meets? Johnson wants to change that with 'Grand Slam Track' - a series of four events per year, where Racers each compete in two track events against a rotating cast of Challengers for a $100,000 winners cheque. So how do you judge success when you're a sports start up? Are the biggest names like Noah Lyles going to sign up soon? And, as a (self-admitted) impatient person, how is Michael handling this project? (11:00)Plus, Gabby and Mark react to a final-filled weekend from Arsenal lifting the Women's Champions League trophy, to Gary Lineker's goodbye on Match of the Day, and the noise around the refereeing as Northampton Saints lost the Champions Cup final.

Welcome to episode 196 with Rory Lamont, who is a former professional Rugby Union player and the co-founder of CAIM, a health and wellness retreat centre in highland Scotland. During his time as a professional rugby player, Rory played for Glasgow Warriors, Sale Sharks and Toulon.  He has 29 international caps for Scotland and has represented his country in two world cups. Over the years he was plagued by various injuries and concussions and whilst playing against Wales in the 2012 Six Nations tournament, he suffered a career ending leg break. The injury, the surgeries, medical drugs and loss of both his career and identity pushed Rory in a mental and spiritual crisis which took him to the brink of ending his own life. The collapse of his physical and mental health forced Rory to confront himself and he travelled to Costa Rica where he experienced the transformational healing power of the plant medicine Iboga which helped him to identify the changes he needed to make and he began the journey of healing and inner work that would lead him to the work he does now. In this episode Rory guides me through the highs and lows of his rugby career and the injuries that kickstarted the decline in his mental health. We chat about his first experience with plant medicine and how it helped him and we chat about what we can learn from depression, about learning to let go and to be vulnerable, the importance of healing as part of a community and why this work needs to be made more accessible. We also chat about how scary it is to do these things, why men need rites of passage and the role of the hero's journey and we chat about some of the incredible things that Rory has witnessed while holding space and supporting others. It was wonderful to hear Rory's story and how he learned to navigate his struggles.  I can't thank him enough for his openness.  The work he does now feels vital and I came away from this conversation feeling hopeful and inspired.

Sid has worked with FTSE 100 companies, invested in, and mentored over 30 SME businesses, and had served as the CEO of Sale Sharks rugby for three years. What he discovered is that the most valuable asset in all sectors is people. Sid became involved in the sports sector because of its unique focus on human potential. He wanted to explore what lessons sport could offer and how they might overlap with the business world. As a CEO, he faced common challenges: limited resources, no increase in budget, limited beliefs and a product with limited room for change. All challenges are shared by leaders in many organisations. Achieving their objectives required a shift in behaviour. The same principles applied to maximising performance both on and off the field. To increase productivity Sid knew he needed a fully engaged workforce. Most importantly his first step was to employ a leadership style that demonstrated and embodied his message rather than staying at the usual level of just words on a wall. And this is why I am excited to bring you this conversation with Sid. I've heard many practitioners and coaches discuss the gap between the coaching staff and the CEO level, and so Sid's views and experience on bridging this gap is a powerful insight for all who work in performance sport and within in business outside of sport. Talking Points: The lone voice in creating a connection Putting a foundation of culture in place Past hurt informs future fear Why you can have the best strategy in the world but it's useless if the Human potential is missing Winning is a process bigger than you Why leadership is a show and not a tell If you enjoy this episode please leave a review on iTunes or Spotify platforms, and by doing this you will actively help spread this content to the practitioners that need it.

The delicate balance between advancing research and ensuring practical applicability in the high-speed realm of sports nutrition is a perpetual struggle. Decision-making is difficult, especially when faced with a scarcity of evidence. It's a challenge that resonates with many professionals in the field, prompting reflections on the art of making informed choices in the absence of conclusive data.
