My guest today is Ben Franks! (@ben__franks1)
Ben is a lecturer in applied coaching science at Oxford Brookes University in the UK. Primarily his work is focused on the visual control of movement in sport during interceptive actions. Alongside his academic work, Ben coaches in football where he currently works for Ebbsfleet United Women, having previously held positions in the Women's National League and within non-league mens football.”
When I originally started this podcast and made a list of potential guests, Ben was right near the top. I originally came across his work from the 2020 sport moment it’s go conference where he was a press enter.
Ben recently released a paper titled “A descriptive case study of skilled football goal keepers during 1:1 Dyads: A case for adaptive variability on quiet eye “….which is what a lot of of Conversation centers on.
We get into everything from:
- What exactly is quiet eye
- To prospective control
- How gaze strategies vary amongst athletes
- And a Doobie of a question that’s I ask Ben at the end that’s been on my mind for years, so make sure you stay till the end
I hope you enjoy the show!
