Background

About Liam Smith

I am a driven and enthusiastic Sports Science Coaching and Physical Education student at Loughborough University, currently entering the final year of my undergraduate degree. My academic journey has been enriched by a year-long placement as a Graduate Sports Assistant at Ratcliffe College, where I honed my skills in sports coaching and mentorship. I have a passion for working with young people, dedicated to helping them achieve their best outcomes, whether in a classroom setting or a coaching environment. My future ambitions are to either pursue a career in cricket data analytics or to teach Maths and PE, leveraging my strong analytical skills and my commitment to education. Alongside my degree, I have been the Lead Cricket Performance Analyst at Loughborough University. This role has involved managing logistics, such as organising camera kits and spearheading a partnership with NV Play to enhance our data analytics capabilities. My experience in this role has solidified my interest in cricket analytics and provided me with practical skills in performance analysis. I am excited to continue developing my expertise in sports science and education, aiming to make a positive impact in the lives of young people through teaching and coaching.
