At HPC, the assessment process plays a crucial role in the development of junior athletes. We begin by conducting a comprehensive evaluation to identify strengths, weaknesses, and areas for improvement, establishing a performance baseline that guides all future training. This baseline allows us to personalise each athlete’s program, ensuring that every aspect of their training is targeted towards their specific goals. We use a variety of tests to assess different elements of athletic performance, including speed, strength, agility, and mobility. These assessments are tailored to the individual’s needs, whether that’s enhancing explosive power, increasing endurance, or addressing imbalances with accessory work.

​

The assessment process doesn’t stop at the initial evaluation. After each training block, we retest the athlete to track progress and identify areas that need further attention. These follow-up assessments allow us to make necessary adjustments to the program, ensuring it remains challenging and effective. By regularly re-evaluating an athlete’s performance, we can implement new progressions and challenges to keep them progressing.
