Having spent the last fifteen years advising and getting inside the minds of champions, including the likes of Frank Lampard, Shane Warne, Stuart Broad and Boris Becker, there is perhaps no one who is better qualified to make sense of elite-sporting performance than Jeremy Snape.
Jeremy had an incredibly successful 16 year cricket career, in which he went on to receive 10 caps for the England team. However, he is a firm believer though that failure was often his most powerful teacher and when he under-performed in front of 120,000 people against India in a One Day International in 2002, a life lesson was learnt. As he refers to in his podcast, named ‘Inside the Mind of Champions’, it wasn’t the opposition who caused him to fail that day, it was himself. In that moment he realised that for anyone to thrive in their careers, they need to win their own mental battle first and this is where Jeremy’s journey, to becoming one of the most respected and trusted names in sports psychology, ultimately began. ⠀ ⠀
In 2005, having qualified with a degree in Sports Psychology, Jeremy was enlisted by the Rajasthan Royals to help Shane Warne’s side win their first IPL Trophy. With Warne having famously said that “the only coach should be the one that takes us to and from the ground”, the hardest part of the job for Snape was opening Warne’s eyes to the benefits he could bring. Once he was able to do so and prove the impact that his methods had on the side’s performance, his services would be in-demand from the world’s top sporting sides for the next 13 years.
Jeremy has since held roles at Crystal Palace, as well as advising England Rugby under Eddie Jones during their record 18 wins in a row. He has taken these learnings, alongside insights from the All Blacks and F1 teams, to help understand how to build the strongest and most agile teams in elite sport. Jeremy is a great inspiration to us, and we're so grateful for the conversation we were able to have with him.
