2019 Seattle Sounders FC Sports Science Seminar — Roots of Performance

The Seattle Sounders FC will bring in some of the brightest minds in sports science and performance enhancement to join their coaching staff in sharing the latest methodologies in sports-specific training, strength and conditioning, performance coaching, and sports science. We invite coaches from professional, top college, club, and high school programs to join us in investigating the needs of elite-level athletes both on and off the field.

The content provided in this seminar will be applicable for coaches working at the highest level of any team sport. The goal of the seminar is to provide real-world examples of how to apply evidence-based solutions in your high-performance team.

This unique three-day program will explore the four non-compromises that all teams and organizations must include for sustainable success. Attendees will have the opportunity to listen to some of the top experts in injury prevention and strength training, long-term and short-term recovery strategies, metabolic fitness theory, and athlete monitoring and development. Attendance is limited to the first 100 registrants.

This year’s seminar features a new format including small-group audience discussions. Each day’s presenters will provide questions based on the day’s theme and then lead (and participate in) small-group conversations to foster a more personal and in-depth discourse.
