SPORT PERFORMANCE, TALENT IDENTIFICATION & ATHLETE DEVELOPMENT
With decades of experience in managing draft combines, athlete development and sport coaching across our team, we are empathetic to the journey of the athlete, coach and boot-room team too.
Today we have the benefit to identify injury risk well ahead of it being over-loaded and cause long-term damage so our team work in partnership with our sporting clients to objectify athlete performance in isolation.
Applying latest technologies under GPTQA conditions for validity with accredited Applied Sport Scientists, we can reinforce the club and connect services that are normally expensive or provided by interns. All of our team are trained, certified and accredited for the purpose.
Talent identification is a major part of club success so we integrate the performance testing event with health checks to protect the athlete too. A fully managed trials event can be organised for your club ensuring an unbiased and objective approach for all athletes plus allowing the coach to be selective uniquely from a sport specificity lens.
Our on-demand services provide comprehensive support anywhere across Australia or internationally.
