WHAT IS THEIR GOAL?

Does your child want to improve their stamina, technique or race tactics?

Do they have professional sports club trials coming up & they want to improve their speed?

DISCOVER HOW WE CAN HELP THEIR TRAINING

SKILL DEVELOPMENT

With athletes that are still physically developing we focus predominantly on skill development

We work on improving Fundamental movements including Agility, Balance & Co-ordination

We also develop your child's Running Technique, Proprioception & Neural Recruitment 

DEVELOP FUNDAMENTAL SKILLS FOR FUTURE SUCCESS

WHY WE FOCUS ON SKILLS

We follow the guidance from the UK Athlete Development Model regarding Young Athletes:

​

- The Lactic Acid Energy System (used by adult sprinters) is not fully developed at this stage of development

- Training the Lactic System generates significant fatigue which impacts the ability to perform co-ordinated movements

- Previously co-ordinated movements need to be re-learned after periods of rapid growth & so until skills are re-mastered by athletes in their adult body shape, the focus on dedicated training of the Lactic Energy System should be a secondary consideration

SKILL DEVELOPMENT IS KEY IN YOUNG ATHLETES

IMPROVE THEIR TECHNIQUE

We Assess Your Child's Running Style & Teach Them How To Run More Efficiently 

TECHNIQUE COACHING

Through a variety of fun games & drills we teach your child how to run with better technique
