Data-Driven Performance
Performance Testing
Objective athlete data from professional-grade kit — VALD ForceDecks and timing gates. See exactly where you are, what needs to improve, and track it over time. From £75.
What We Measure
Every test targets a specific, trainable quality — speed, power, change of direction, movement quality and asymmetry. No vanity numbers; just data that guides better training.
Timing-gate sprint testing with 10m, 20m and 40m splits — acceleration and top-speed mechanics measured to the thousandth of a second.
VALD ForceDecks countermovement jump, squat jump and drop jump — height, peak force, power output and rate of force development.
Reactive Strength Index (RSI) from drop-jump testing — how efficiently an athlete absorbs and produces force in the stretch-shortening cycle.
505 and pro-agility (5-10-5) tests — deceleration control and change-of-direction speed, assessed on both legs where relevant.
Limb Symmetry Index from bilateral force-plate testing — left/right imbalances that flag injury risk and guide prehab priorities.
Structured movement-quality screening to identify restrictions and compensations before they limit performance or cause injury.
The Equipment
The same technology used across professional academy and elite performance programmes — now measuring your athletes.
Dual force plates that measure exactly how an athlete produces and absorbs force — the gold standard for jump and power testing.
Photocell gates that capture sprint and change-of-direction times to the thousandth of a second — objective speed data, every time.
On The Day
A clear, structured session so every athlete is tested safely, consistently and to their full potential.
A structured, coached dynamic warm-up prepares every athlete safely and consistently before any data is captured — so results reflect true performance, not a cold start.
Athletes run through the timing gates with multiple attempts, best time recorded. 10m, 20m and 40m splits are captured to profile acceleration and top speed.
Countermovement, squat and drop jumps on the VALD ForceDecks. Power, force and Reactive Strength Index are measured, with left/right symmetry calculated in real time.
505 and pro-agility change-of-direction tests, plus a movement-quality screen to assess control, deceleration and any restrictions.
A clear, plain-English performance report lands within 2–3 days — your numbers, what they mean, how they benchmark, and the training priorities that follow.
Who It's For
Anyone wanting an honest baseline and a clear plan — from adults training seriously for the first time to competitive athletes tracking gains against their programme.
Age-appropriate testing and benchmarks for young athletes building their first performance profile — with parent-friendly reporting and long-term development in mind.
Full-squad testing days with individual athlete reports and squad benchmarks — ideal for pre-season baselines, in-season monitoring and return-to-play checks.

Common Questions
A Starter Screen runs around 45 minutes and a full Performance Profile around 90 minutes, including warm-up and results. A Team Testing Day is typically 2–3 hours for a squad of around 15–20 athletes; larger squads are no problem and simply run over a longer session or a full day. It's a straightforward £25 per athlete (minimum 10), and that price already includes each athlete's individual data report. If you'd like a full squad report for the coaching staff — rankings, benchmarks and the whole team in one place — that's a single £75 one-off on top.
Your written performance report is delivered within 2–3 days. It sets out your numbers, what they mean, how they benchmark, and the training priorities that follow.
All ages. Protocols and benchmarks are age-appropriate for youth athletes, and testing works equally well for adults and competitive athletes of any level.
Yes — Team Testing Days can be run on-site at your venue. Get in touch with your location and squad size and we'll sort a plan and quote.
Not at all. Testing can be a standalone service or built into an ongoing programme. Every new client starts with a free initial consultation.
Normal training kit and trainers — the same you'd wear for a session. We'll take you through a full warm-up before any testing begins.
