The opening ceremony of the Paris Olympics is taking place later today! We can't wait for the sporting spectacles that are coming in the next few weeks. Now is also a great time to highlight the work of the GLL Sport Foundation (GSF), the largest independent athlete support programme in the UK. More than 90 past and present GSF beneficiaries will be competing at the highest level in this year's Olympics! This highlights the opportunities GSF support gives to people to pursue their passion and reach the highest levels of sporting achievement. Since its inception in 2008, by providing financial aid, access to training facilities, and comprehensive support services, the Foundation has distributed over 25,000 athlete awards to the value of over £15m. Kyocera Annodata, part of Kyocera Group UK, are delighted to be a GSF sponsor since 2015, supporting them in their mission to make sporting dreams come true.

What does TSG Hoffenhiem and COPA Soccer Training Center in California, USA have in common? The answer is a common interest in Sports Science through research in football talent identification and development which has now been formalised through a new partnership. At the centre of this pioneering new collaboration is a data centric network using technology such as the skills-lab Arena and skills-lab Studio systems to support and revolutionize the “effectiveness” of the talent identification process, and player development at the youth level, for both men and women’s football globally. The partnership brings together COPA STC’s expertise in utilizing technology to screen the skills and physiological characteristics of large numbers of youth football players on an objective basis with TSG Hoffenheim’s unique and highly regarded skills around youth talent development, and their extraordinary expertise in performance assessments. TSH Hoffenheim boasts a record of graduating approximately 23% of their youth academy players to professional football and have the highest net transfer revenue of the value of players developed and sold in the German Bundesliga. Through collating performance data sets in creating player “talent” profile benchmarks based on specific metrics such as passing, ball control, finishing, decision-making, speed, strength, and agility, the data can be used by football coaches, performance analysts and scouts to identify, compare and ultimately assist talented players with “quantifiable” potential in progressing with their development. The partnership represents a milestone in creating a pathway for the best talents ( in the USA) being rated by COPA STC’s scoring methodology for selection to attend trials at TSG Hoffenheim. Data science is playing an integral part in the screening and selection process. It must be noted that data science is there as a tool to support traditional coaching and scouting and not to replace it … football will always rely primarily on human judgement. As the development and transfer of young players comes more and more under the scrutiny of clubs and their youth academies finances, in relation to their youth to pro conversion ratios and Return on Investment (ROI), decisions will need to be justified by performance and the numbers that back them up. COPA STC (USA) and TSG Hoffenhiem have set the trend …watch this space.

The Paris 2024 Olympics have introduced a unique and symbolic design for their medals, incorporating metal from the iconic Eiffel Tower. This creative approach represents the essence of French heritage and ingenuity. Each medal features an irregular radiance pattern, symbolizing the light of Paris and the achievements of the athletes. This innovation not only celebrates the Games but also embodies the spirit of transformation and excellence. In the world of recruitment and business, this story serves as a powerful metaphor. Just as the designers of the Paris 2024 medals used an unconventional material to create something extraordinary, effective recruitment requires seeing beyond the conventional. It’s about recognizing the potential in diverse backgrounds and experiences, and crafting a team that radiates unique strengths and talents. Much like the intricate design process of the medals, building a successful team involves attention to detail and a commitment to quality. It’s about creating an environment where each individual's contribution shines, contributing to the collective success of the organization. Just as the Paris 2024 medals will be cherished for their distinctive design and the stories they carry, a well-assembled team will be valued for its diversity and the innovative solutions it brings to the table. The Paris 2024 medals remind us that true brilliance comes from embracing and integrating diverse elements. In recruitment, this means looking beyond the surface to find the hidden gems that will illuminate your organization’s path to success.

If you're into sustainable transport & major event planning and lamenting the end of the Paris 2024 Olympics here's a great discussion piece about some very bold assertions from the organisers of LA28 Olympic & Paralympic Games. The question may not be about whether the Olympics can do it - in terms of ensuring the transport infrastructure is in place in time - but more about whether there is sufficient time to influence the mind-set of the "car dominant" spectator so they feel confident enough to change the habit of a lifetime.... it's going to be a roller coaster for sure! #sustainabletravel #influencingtravelbehaviour #demandmanagement
