Sport Scientist Scott leaves Southampton

First Team Sport Scientist Sam Scott is leaving Southampton after 13 years at the club.

Scott originally joined the club staff in December 2012 as an Academy Strength and Conditioning Coach and went on to perform the same role for the club’s Under-9 to Under-16 players until being appointed to his first team role in December 2020.

He said on LinkedIn: “It wasn’t an easy decision to step away from somewhere that’s given me so much, both professionally and personally. Saints has been where I’ve truly learned my trade.

“I’ve been lucky to have shared some boyhood dream moments and now feels the right time for a new chapter. I’m excited to put that experience into building something of my own helping others push forward with their physical performance.”
