Having held senior positions with the U.S National Strength and Conditioning Association, Colorado College, Dartmouth College and an ongoing role with Norwich University, Caulfield is uniquely positioned to improve Lumin Sports’ athlete data visualisation and management software, Arc Core.
Caulfield said he’s looking forward to helping athletic departments in collegiate, semi-professional and high school settings develop talent performance and wellbeing.
‘’I'm excited to join the Lumin Sports team and help large and small athletic departments maximise their impact on talent development,’’ Coach Caulfield said.
‘’The data insights Arc Core provides help S&C coaches make timely decisions on athlete output and is a key driver in load management and feedback too.
‘’Having previously rolled out and used Arc Core as an S&C coach in a college setting, I’m keen to help others realise the benefits of incorporating an intuitive software platform into their program.
’’CEO of Lumin Sports, Ben Tripodi, said the addition of Caulfield highlights the brand’s commitment to engaging experienced practitioners to help develop products that deliver clear benefits to coaches and athletes.
‘’Our aim is to assist coaches and medical staff cultivate elite performers,’’ Tripodi said.
‘’To do that we need to engage and work with people who have extensive coaching experience and can make sure our product is best-in-class, and Scott fits that bill.’’
‘’We look forward to working with Scott to improve the product and our relationships with both clients and stakeholders in the US.’’
Lumin Sports currently works with seven colleges in the United States, defence programs as well as elite and emerging teams in Australia and around the world.
"We are a sport and a team with such a diverse work force which is geographically dispersed. Keeping in touch with each other is critical , every day that a rider is not able to train is a day lost to the team and to the rider. Technology and the partnership with Lumin has enabled us to be more connected than ever in a meaningful and relevant way, keeping us on the road."
"Since using the Lumin Sports platform, we, as a high performance football team have been able to consolidate a-lot of our existing data storage and analysis platforms so that we can now use one central platform throughout the department. Seamless integrations with real time visuals has been at the forefront of my work and where I see the most benefit and potential from the Lumin platform from my point of view."
"Time is a valuable resource and having everything in the one place meant we got some of it back. Having performance data, communications, and critical information all in one central hub streamlined our admin processes."
"Using the Lumin platform to track player health and wellness is an easy process to help with player compliance; and a logical dashboard for coaching, medical and performance staff to visualise list availability and status at a glance. It’s been a really valuable addition to our program."
“Lumin Sports has helped our coaches and trainers overcome communication barriers with an easy-to-use, accessible, and collaborative platform. The simplicity of the mobile app has improved communication and planning efficiency. This has undoubtedly enhanced both the coaches and athlete experience, ultimately contributing to team success.”

‘"Both the NSCA and Lumin Sports share a similar mission to advance strength and conditioning. We value having Lumin Sports onboard as a coaches sponsor and appreciate their commitment to supporting the association and our members."
"Lumin Sports has provided an easy, fast, intuitive and visually enticing to collect, analyse and visualize all training load and wellness data. We are doing more as a department than ever previously in regards to our applied sport science efforts from profiling, internal and external load monitoring, subjective questionnaires and more and none of it would not be possible without Lumin Sports."
"As Head Coach, the usability and visual nature of the Lumin platform means I can quickly get a snapshot of how the players are feeling, but also how the team is tracking as a whole. The Lumin Sports Platform is now an important part of our day-to-day lives."
"Before implementing Lumin, time was our biggest pain point. As a club and performance department, we were simply not equipped with the time to monitor even simple metrics like RPE, training loads and wellness. With the Lumin Platform, our athletes can now complete simple surveys and input valuable data in seconds that give us key information that influences our players' performance on game day, it's simply a game changer!"
"Lumin, to be honest, is the best platform on the market. It's fantastically simple and easy to use, there are several AMS systems out there that are complex, hard to use and that really struggle to get athlete buy-in. That is what attracted us to Lumin Sports in the first place was how easy to use both the athlete app and coaches dashboards are. It now gives our coaches far greater detail what our athletes are doing outside of the gym which provides us so much value as an organisation."
