Want to join our story?

Our business is built around the strength of our people. We continually strive to find great people, people who think like we do and have a passion for sports performance and rehabilitation. If this sounds like you then please drop us a note to get introduced.

We actively encourage Universities to also get in touch with our team to discuss the opportunity to structure applied placements for their students. Following attendance of our education experience days a number of students have joined us for applied placements. Students joining GCP are typically studying sports and exercise science, strength and conditioning, sports therapy, sports nutrition, sports psychology or physiotherapy.

“The team at GCP have given me an insight into how an interdisciplinary way of working, can be used to return an injured athlete back to play. This placement has allowed me to apply my sports therapy & rehabilitation knowledge gained at university, to solve a real world problem, whilst also challenging and advancing it. Thanks goes to the GCP team for giving me such valuable experience.”

Alex Broadhead, 4th Year Student, MSci Sport and Exercise Therapy

“Thanks for arranging the experience day at Oriam for our year 3rd-year students on the Physiology & Sports Science course. We found it highly beneficial to get them out together as a group into an elite facility. The students took a lot away from the day and found it extremely useful.”

Nairn Scobie, Sports & Exercise Science Lecturer, University of Glasgow

“The experience provided to the students was an excellent example of sports science in practice, demonstrating clearly how the inter-disciplinary teams assess, liaise and programme for an injured athlete to return to play post-injury. There was clear guidance of how the team used evidence-based practice to support this journey for the athlete and gave the students a first hand experience of how to apply their theoretical degree knowledge in an elite environment.”

James Keenan, Strength, Conditioning & Rehabilitation Programme Leader, University of Derby

“It was a pleasure to work with Game Changer Performance.  We involved 40 of our year 5 to year 8 boys in learning about Sport Psychology and Goal Setting, both of which the boys really enjoyed.  The onsite session at school was perfectly adapted to our boys and was wonderfully interactive.  This will help evolve our ‘More Able Sportsman’ program.”

Mike Schmid, Director of Sport, Rokeby School

“The PE staff and sports teams at St Mary’s Calne have relished the dynamic, thought-provoking and practical delivery of GCP’s sports psychology sessions onsite at school. It was relevant and appropriate, and the girls have begun to apply new techniques and strategies to enhance their performance both in training and in matches.”

Heidi Marvin, Director of Sport, St. Mary's Calne
