Resident Sports Psychologist and Peak Performance Specialist
- Hitting his first squash ball at age 37, with only 5 years of playing experience and less than a total of 10 tournaments under his belt, Marc used Deliberate Practice techniques to reach the top ranks of masters squash within 3 years.
- His expertise and knowledge are based in scientific principles that explore the cutting edge of mental toughness research so that our Junior, Elite and High Performance players can get the edge that is so important at the elite levels of sports performance. In addition to extensive "academic research" on sports pscyhology, Marc has visited the infamous Nick Bolletieri Academy in Bradenton, Florida, now the IMG Academy and the Michael Johnson Performance Centre in Dallas, Texas to find out what the very best "Academies" are doing to breed the next generation of champions.
