Changing gear, David conducted various performance workshops for the British Olympic Team in advance of the 2016 Olympic Games in Rio, on coaching behaviors and best practice for athletes.

David, as performance lead for Irish Ladies Golf, introduced the multi-disciplinary approach of introducing fellow PGA Professionals to concentrate on specialist performance roles within the game such as short game, putting and long game analysis. As a result of this, David has gained distinct experience in all of these areas, making the overall athlete management space, a natural fit. By also introducing a specialist U-16/development coach, Ireland has achieved numerous noted successes on the ladies’ stage in the last 5 years – perhaps the teams most notable result was the first medal by a British Isles nation in the Espirito Santo Trophy in Mexico, 2016 when the team brought home the bronze medal.

David finished his duties as Performance Director for The Irish Ladies Team at the end of 2020 to concentrate on his work with Sigmoid Sports as well as his own coaching and speaking engagements. His final duty being team lead for the Ireland Ladies at The Tokyo Olympic Games in 2021.
