*Lead Strength & Conditioning Coach at Dubai Elite Falcons FC • Blue Crow Sports Group (2024-07 – 2025-08)
Full-scope high performance delivery for 28-32 professional players across a complete 38-match season with daily load governance, weekly microcycle design, in-season strength maintenance, and live GPS monitoring every session.
- Full-scope HP delivery for 28-32 professional players across a complete 38-match season - daily load governance, weekly microcycle design, in-season strength maintenance, and live GPS monitoring every session.
- Built individual load governance from week one using WIMU Pro - daily HSR thresholds, deceleration density, and ACWR per player. Two pre-match ACWR flags actioned immediately. Neither player sustained a soft tissue injury.
- Systematic eccentric strength programme reconstructed for all flagged players - H:Q ratios improved from 0.48-0.55 to above 0.63 across 12 weeks. Zero hamstring strains in that cohort across the full season.
- Adductor robustness protocol introduced after two pre-season groin strains. Zero groin injuries in the competitive season that followed.
- Squad available above 85% in 9 of 10 match weeks - lowest non-contact soft tissue injury rate recorded in the UAE First Division that season.
- Season outcome: Promotion to UAE First Division • 85%+ squad availability • Lowest non-contact injury rate in the league
*Lead Strength & Conditioning Coach at UAE National Women's Cricket Team • Emirates Cricket Board (2023-01 – 2024-12)
National team physical preparation across centralised camps, bilateral series, and three major ICC-sanctioned tournaments with load restructuring and criteria-based return-to-performance protocols.
- National team physical preparation across centralised camps, bilateral series, and three major ICC-sanctioned tournaments - ACC Premier Cup, ICC Global Qualifier, Women's Asia Cup 2022.
- Yo-Yo IR2 improved by 15-23% across multiple series - weekly load restructured to protect repeat high-intensity effort across schedules of 4-6 competitive exposures per week.
- Non-contact soft tissue injury incidence reduced by ~40% within six months through sprint workload modelling, bowling-specific load governance, and individual eccentric strength programming using GPS output and session RPE.
- Criteria-based RTP pathways for ACL, hamstring, groin, and ankle injuries - every player returned to match-speed readiness before competitive selection. No time-based clearance. No exceptions.
- Season Outcome: 40% reduction in non-contact injury incidence within six months • 15-23% Yo-Yo IR2 gain in ACC, ICC, Asia Cup tournament delivery
