ACADEMY SESSIONS

A performance training program is designed to help your body simply move better and prevent injury. For most athletes, this means moving with more mobility, stability, strength and power. By focusing on functional movement, functional strength, flexibility and balance, you can achieve your performance goals. It sounds simple enough but traditional performance training hasn’t always been this way. In fact, performance training for athletes is still relatively new and sports science has revealed bigger and better ways to train athletes for sport.

Academy sessions are designed for athletes aged between 12-18. During the training blocks athletes will have the opportunity to undergo fitness testing to assess their progress throughout the year. This testing will include vertical jump, max pull strength and grip testing, using Vald Force plates and Dynamo equipment.
