WHAT IS the ACADEMY?
A long-term strength and conditioning programme specifically supporting young people who love to move.
At Athlete Development (AD) Academy, we take a unique approach by incorporating the latest research in the youth athlete space. Our approach includes fun movement challenges, games and a mixture of traditional exercises which help our members become fitter, faster and stronger for their chosen sports.
WHO IS AD ACADEMY FOR?
Individuals aged 8-18 who are keen to get support with their physical development through age-appropriate strength and conditioning training.
Our coaches consider growth and maturation at an individual level to ensure we’re providing training targeted to each member’s needs. Our sessions are open to all athletes from all sports and ability levels, so whether you’re just starting a new sport or pushing hard to reach the next level in a sport you’re passionate about, you’ll thrive at AD Academy.
Managing an injury? No problem.
If your child is currently sitting out of their sport due to an injury, we have training options for them too. Our experienced coaches work alongside your health professional to develop a programme that will support their rehabilitation. Movement can support injury rehabilitation, and our experienced coaches can help with loading and movements to aid in your child’s recovery. Let’s turn our injuries into opportunities to work on other aspects of your athletic development.
