Barnsley College’s Sports Academy has teamed up with highly experienced
Sports Scientist, Nathan Winder, to develop its football academy and
sporting education.
Nathan, who started his career working at the College, returns to the
Sports Academy with a wealth of knowledge and experience. His extensive
career includes working as Head of Sports Science at Barnsley FC and
Leeds United and most recently Fitness Coach at Ipswich Town.
Nathan said: “I’m really looking forward to it. This is a good
opportunity to help with the development of young footballers.
“There are a lot of really talented athletes in the Barnsley Sports
Academy and individuals in terms of their education. I’m hoping to help
put more of an applied side to that in relation to the sciences of
sport.”
Luke Forgione, Performance and Athlete Development Co-ordinator at the
College, added: “I’m really looking forward to Nathan being involved in
our Sports Academy programme.
“His knowledge and expertise means students will get the opportunity to
work first-hand with a specialist in his field. The students should
utilise his skills to develop individually and collectively. He will be
a great asset to us.”
