Our services are easily accessible and affordable

We appreciate how difficult it can be to run a club.  National Governing Bodies provide little or no support, so clubs have poor access to information and facilities and are run on a budget.  Our Academy is working to help develop young athlete talent, which ultimately results in easier access to sponsorship opportunities and potential funding from the government.  We understand results mean investment and we want to help you achieve this.

The Young Athletes Training Academy works with clubs to develop the fitness of children who are trained in groups at the club location.  Initially the children undergo a series of performance assessments that consist of the following:

Health tests such as Resting Heart Rate, Height, Weight, BMI, Aerobic test, Agility, Balance, Co-ordination, Core stability, Strength, Power, and basic range of movement.

All the children record their results and then use this as a benchmark moving forward.  A nine week group training plan is delivered that focuses on improving posture and exercise technique, their aerobic fitness, flexibility, strength and power, dependent on age group and also fitness levels.  Then after each periodisation the children will have another performance assessment and use the results from their previous assessment as their Personal Best to beat.  This cycle then continues until the end of the season.  The cycle also works in line with club competition commitments to ensure time is allowed for tapering.  Other group training sessions include the importance of stretching and interactive nutritional advice for parents, children and coaches.

Personal training services are offered to individuals and there are no restrictions to who this service is available too. Often coaches identify individuals as having a talent, but this has not yet been recognised at elite level.  These services are advanced versions of the above and focus on a more personal service.
