The Performance Extension Program is open to athletes from within all the Academy Sport Programs, and will focus on developing additional performance skills in all-of-sport elements such as speed, agility, reaction time, accuracy and functional movement.
The Performance Extension Program is overseen by Academy Sport Science staff, along with Sport Science Interns from Western Sydney University. Additional support is also provided by Academy Coach and Support staff, and third-party guest presenters throughout the program.
The Performance Extension Program is conducted as an 8-10 weekly session program during school Terms 1 and 3 each year - perfect for those athletes looking to build on their Academy Strength and Conditioning program ahead of their representative sport season in a supervised and friendly environment.
There is NO additional cost for Academy Athletes to attend these sessions, which will be held at locations throughout the Academy region.
Athletes may attend multiple sessions and programs, and whilst encouraged to attend all, are able to miss the occasional session and still complete the program. Ideally Athletes should commit to attend at least 6 sessions to gain benefit from the program.
Athletes should attend in their grey Academy training t-shirt and Academy shorts/gym shorts, with appropriate footwear for indoor stadium use.
Please refer to XPS for upcoming program dates, times and specific session details.
