Analytics in the pool
How performance analytics helps Swimming Australia win gold
With nine gold medals at the Tokyo 2020 Olympics, the Australian Dolphins became the most successful gold-medal winning squad in Australian Olympic history. For Jess Corones, Swimming Insight & Olympic Campaign Lead (Performance Support) at Swimming Australia, it was the culmination of an exciting 24-month performance support journey - from juggling analysis via spreadsheets to advanced predictive analytics using cloud based machine learning.
Join us at 1pm on 8 June to hear Jess share her journey, the learnings and the excitement of seeing predictions within 0.1 of a second of the actual results. This one-hour webinar will delve into the role advanced analytics played in the preparation, coaching and selection of the swim team that delivered a historic nine gold, three silver and eight bronze medals in the pool.
Join us for lunch with Jess and plenty of time for questions.
