About Niamh Obrien

A Sport Scientist (BSc Hons, 1.1) with a strong foundation in Sports Science and a growing specialisation in Performance Analysis across high-performance sport. Currently serving as the Lead Performance Analyst for the Irish Para Swimming Team and the Wicklow GAA Senior Squad. I am also undertaking a research master's degree focused on Performance Analysis in Para Swimming. With hands-on experience across a variety of elite sporting environments, I have developed expertise in using leading analysis tools such as Dartfish, SportsCode, Hudl, and the Athlete Management System AMS (Teamworks). My role regularly involves delivering live analysis in high-pressure settings, identifying key performance trends, and providing actionable insights to coaches and athletes. I thrive in multidisciplinary environments, where I continuously build my knowledge by collaborating with experts across sport science, coaching, and performance support teams. Passionate about performance enhancement, I am committed to refining my skills and contributing to athlete development at the highest level.
