ABOUT US

      A former national youth judo athlete, Coach Tham began his journey in sports science with no prior background. He was accepted into the Faculty of Sports Science at Chulalongkorn University through the National Sports Development Program scholarship.

      As he progressed through his studies, he applied scientific principles from each semester to his own physical preparation for major competitions such as the National Games and University Games—seeing real improvements in his performance.

      Before graduating, he completed a clinical internship in sports medicine at Siriraj Hospital, Faculty of Medicine. There, he worked with injured athletes, helping them recover through exercise and movement instruction—from walking with crutches to being able to jump onto a plyometric box and return to sport.

      After completing his bachelor’s degree, he was awarded a scholarship to pursue a master’s degree in sports science. His thesis focused on energy expenditure in elite female Sepaktakraw athletes. During his graduate studies, he also began coaching general populations in fitness and strength training.

      In 2013, he started working at Fit Junctions as one of the earliest trainers. He later became Head Trainer and Deputy Managing Director of Education and Training, responsible for educating and mentoring new coaches, while overseeing program development and staff training.

      In 2017, the Judo Association of Thailand invited Coach Tham to serve as Strength and Conditioning Coach for the national team, a role he held until 2022. He contributed to preparation for major events including the SEA Games 2017, Asian Games 2018, and SEA Games 2019—where the Thai judo team achieved an outstanding result of 7 gold medals, including individual and team events.
