Course Summary

A two year professional, structured programme of coaching, strength and conditioning, sport science and video analysis to allow players to develop at an elite level.

Course Details

The Academy will provide the students with a professional, structured programme of coaching, strength and conditioning and sport science to bridge the gap between school and university and to start the process two years earlier to allow the athletes to develop to an elite level. Over the two years, we will aim to teach our athletes to understand the reasons behind the training and benefits it has for them to succeed long term, supporting their next steps after the academy whether that is in the UK or America.
