Tom Cole and Joe Dunmore, CEO at LRCFA
Edmonds & Slatter expanded its sports vision partnership after the independent became the official eye care providers of the Leicestershire and Rutland County Football Association (LRCFA).
Tim Cole, director at Edmonds & Slatter, said: ‘It’s often taken for granted, but your vision plays a huge part in any sport. It’s essential to all athletes where clarity of vision can make the difference when making a fraction of a second decisions.
‘Timing, aiming, balance, and consistency are all affected by vision. A footballer who can focus quicker or have better depth perception and peripheral awareness will have an edge over his opponents. This can make all the difference in the sporting field.’
The independent has existing partnerships with the Leicester Riders basketball team and Leicestershire County Crick Club and will now provide eye care to all LRCFA employees, referees, coaches and players.
