How it works
Three tests a season, each followed by a short report in plain language. Players only need their training kit.
Forty minutes on the pitch
One player or a whole squad, tested where they already train.
- Warm-upThe usual warm-up. Height and weight are recorded.
- JumpsA few short jumps, best of three.
- StrengthShort holds for the hips and knees.
- SprintsTimed runs over 10 and 20 metres.
- Back to trainingThe report follows within 48 hours.
Three tests a season
The same tests every time, so a change in the numbers is a change in the player.
Pre-season
The baseline. Everything after it is measured against this.
Mid-season
A check on whether the training is working, while there is time to adjust it.
End of season
A full review, and the starting point for next season.
After every test
A short report for the player, the family and the coach, in plain language.
- Where the player standsSpeed, power, strength and balance, against their own last result and the squad.
- What has changedEvery result next to the last one, including the ones that did not move.
- What to train nextOne clear priority, so the next block of training has a target.
What we will not tell you
- Who will get injuredNo test can predict that for one player, and we do not pretend otherwise.
- That one number is a red flagWhat counts as a real change depends on the test and on the player.
- How a 13‑year‑old ranks against adultsAt that age, growth moves the numbers more than training does.
