Hi - I'm James Malone. I help football physical performance practitioners enhance their careers.

Thank you for visiting my page.

I have worked in elite football in a number of roles, including as a sport scientist, researcher and consultant.

In 2025, I decided that I wanted to dedicate my time to helping football physical performance practitioners enhance their careers in football through mentorship and consultancy.

Throughout my career, I have experienced many highs and lows along the way.

This includes periods of burnout, which is unfortunately becoming a common feature of working in professional football.

My approach to helping football physical performance practitioners is not just about improving your hard skills or CV.

It's also about improving the person holistically to ensure a long, healthy career in football.
