Injury update / interview
« on: June 07, 2018, 08:32:58 PM »

Altrincham FC Press and Media Officer, Brian Flynn, writes "And they're off! Pre-season for 2018/19 commenced for Altrincham Football Club on Tuesday evening with an initial fitness session, designed and implemented by the Sports Therapy team of Tommy Uda and Ryan Murray, taking place at their base at 'Area51 Fitness' in Crewe.

Further fitness sessions are planned to be held at 'The Gym, Altrincham' , recently announced as Altrincham Football Club's new fitness partner.

Brian Flynn interviewed Tommy and Ryan ahead of this first session and discussed its content and objectives, as well as their roles at the football club and how they go about implementing the job.

Tommy provides a detailed individual fitness update on Tom Hannigan, Ben Harrison, James Poole, Shaun Densmore and James Jones.

Chris Parkes was working with the two sports therapists on the session and he talks about his increased coaching responsibilities for the upcoming campaign. Tommy, Ryan and Chris also discuss last season's great success and the challenges that lie ahead of the club's return to Vanarama National League North.

A long but fascinating piece.

Highly professional set up behind the scenes which reflects very well on PP & the standards he clearly demands. No surprise that the general levels of fitness they inherited last summer were poor but clearly the work done since is having an impact. Positive updates too on Hannigan, Harrison, Poole, Jones & Dens. Although slight concern that our physios of the view that Harrison would have benefited from a knee op but were overruled by the surgeon. Hannigan & Harrison together were immense last season.

Overall great insight into the backroom work and credit to Tommy, Chris & Ryan for all that they do.
