On this episode I interviewed Jackson McKellar who is the NRL Rehabilitation Coach with the New Zealand Warriors.
This episode’s focus was expanding on what his role entails as well as Jackson’s emphasis of the importance of coming up through community sport or different grades before making the transition to pro and how he has adapted to his new role.
Topics discussed…
- Explains the duties of his role
- What his day/week looks like
- What other staff members are involved
- How he works with others in the department
- Lessons learned from grades that he has used in pro
- The transition from a private clinic to pro and importance of his community sport and coming up through the different grades
- How his daily consultations are different to a private clinic
- How seeing athletes every day changes his treatment
- Differences in pressure of pro vs lower grades
- How to communicate with the coaching staff
- How did he manage with all the resources and technology to not get caught up in it all and make use of it in an efficient way
- Main principles of rehab having S&C and physio knowledge
