Mae dau raddedig rhagorol o Brifysgol Abertawe<\/a> nawr yn arwain timoedd perfformio o fewn clybiau p\u00eal-droed Lloegr o'r radd flaenaf: Chelsea FC a West Ham United FC.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Astudiodd Tom Taylor a Jordan Smith ar gyfer gradd BSc mewn\u00a0Gwyddor Chwaraeon ac Ymarfer Corff<\/a>\u00a0ym Mhrifysgol Abertawe, ac yna radd Meistr trwy Ymchwil mewn Gwyddor Chwaraeon.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Mae gan Tom Taylor swydd allweddol yn arwain y t\u00eem gwyddor perfformiad yn Chelsea. Mae'r r\u00f4l hon yn cynnwys dylunio proffilio athletwyr sy'n seiliedig ar ddata, optimeiddio strategaethau llwyth hyfforddi, ac integreiddio systemau profi ffisiolegol \u2013 gan ddod ag arloesiadau a ddatblygwyd gan y Brifysgol yn uniongyrchol i'r amgylchedd hyfforddi elitaidd.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Meddai: \u201cRoedd astudio Gwyddor Chwaraeon ym Mhrifysgol Abertawe\u2019r wedi gosod sylfaen ar gyfer fy ngyrfa mewn chwaraeon proffesiynol.Rhoddodd y darlithoedd ddealltwriaeth gadarn o'r wyddoniaeth sy\u2019n sail i berfformio a daeth y sesiynau labordy \u00e2 phethau'n fyw ynghyd \u00e2 gwella ein sgiliau ymarferol.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Ar \u00f4l cwblhau fy ngradd, parheais i astudio yn Abertawe am radd MSc trwy ymchwil, dan oruchwyliaeth yr Athro Kilduff, ar y cyd \u00e2 lleoliad blwyddyn o hyd gyda West Ham Utd.Fe wnaeth hyn ganiat\u00e1u i mi ganolbwyntio o ddifri ar heriau perfformiad penodol ym maes p\u00eal-droed proffesiynol. Drwy gymorth fy MSc, fe alluogodd hynny i mi ddatblygu atebion perfformiad pwrpasol\u201d.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Mae Jordan Smith wedi ymgymryd \u00e2 r\u00f4l arweinyddiaeth strategol yn West Ham United, gan gyfarwyddo protocolau cryfder a chyflyru a fframweithiau dadansoddi perfformiad ar draws holl weithgareddau'r t\u00eem cyntaf. Mae eu gwaith yn cysylltu labordai ymchwil a methodolegau perfformiad uchel Abertawe yn ddi-dor \u00e2'r dechnoleg ddiweddaraf ym maes paratoi athletau'r Uwch Gynghrair.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Meddai: \u201cFe wnaeth fy amser yn Abertawe gryfhau fy awydd i weithio mewn chwaraeon el\u00eet. Rhoddodd y radd y sgiliau damcaniaethol ac ymarferol i mi lwyddo yn y maes hynod gystadleuol hwn. Drwy gydol fy amser yno rhoddodd yr adran a'r staff bwyslais mawr ar bob elfen ar ddatblygu gyrfa. Wrth gael lleoliad gyda Chlwb P\u00eal-droed Dinas Abertawe, daeth hyn \u00e2 phob dim yn fyw. Mae'r gefnogaeth rydw i wedi'i chael drwy gydol fy ngyrfa gan staff allweddol yn dangos pa mor angerddol y mae nhw am barhau i ddatblygu'r genhedlaeth nesaf o Wyddonwyr Perfformiad\".<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Datblygodd y ddau sgiliau a hyfforddiant yn amgylchedd Gwyddor Chwaraeon ac Ymarfer Corff trylwyr Abertawe, sy'n enwog am ei bartneriaethau arloesol, ei ymchwil ddwfn, a'i leoliadau gwaith yn y diwydiant. Mae eu hesgyniad i rolau arweinyddiaeth mewn dau o glybiau blaenllaw Lloegr yn tanlinellu effaith drawsnewidiol trosi arloesedd academaidd yn berfformiad chwaraeon elitaidd.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Mae'r penodiadau hyn yn dangos llwyddiant ymchwil gymhwysol a lleoliadau diwydiant Abertawe sy'n grymuso graddedigion i yrru arloesedd o fewn sefyllfaoedd chwaraeon proffesiynol.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
