Episode Synopsis

Complexity is a topic that is growing in popularity across sport. Before we get into making a case for complexity’s importance to sport on our upcoming main episode on this topic, we’re taking the opportunity on this mini episode to actually define the term. Luckily, recent work from a UK group, the Centre for the Evaluation of Complexity Across the Nexus has already done a lot of the heavy lifting. Developed in conjunction with leading experts, the Centre has distilled complexity down to its 16 defining features. On this episode,  Professor Sam Robertson is joined by Dr Carl Woods to unpack these features as they specifically relate to sport. What do you think?
