Offseason Football Program

Welcome to SportsFit, the home of football athletic development in the inner west. Our football program is dedicated to equipping aspiring young footballers with the physical capabilities and skills needed to excel. With our evidence-based approach, we deliver high-quality programs for improved physical performance.

What Is It?

The SportsFit Offseason Football Program is for 12- 18 year olds.

Our comprehensive program is split into 2 blocks of 6 weeks and is designed to maximize your athletic abilities. Through a combination of field and gym sessions, we target key areas such as running mechanics, sprint speed, reaction time, agility, conditioning, power, and strength.

Each training block consists of two six-week periods, allowing for a progressive and systematic approach to your development. During the 45-minute field sessions, you'll experience a dynamic range of activities. Starting with a tailored football/running priming warm-up, followed by running technique correction exercises and then into reaction-based drills and sprinting and conditioning drills.

To begin, we provide a complimentary introductory week for comprehensive testing and establishing baselines. This ensures a tailored program aligned with your needs and goals. During this period, we assess your abilities and provide guidance on correct technique for compound lifts. These fundamental exercises are integral to our program, emphasizing proper form and execution to maximize progress.

Components

Strength and Power

Our gym sessions complement the field sessions by focusing on enhancing your strength and power, which directly translates into improved sprinting ability. You'll have access to a fully equipped gym, where you can get free access to our gym outside of your sessions during the length of the program

Fitness and Conditioning

Our field sessions are designed to maximize intensity and improve your conditioning levels. Each session integrates a football-specific conditioning drill that encompasses game-realistic distances and incorporates agility and reactive components, simulating the demands of an actual match. By prioritizing your fitness, you'll experience improved endurance, enabling you to sustain peak performance for extended periods of time.

Running Mechanics

By focusing on refining running mechanics both in the gym and on the field, you gain invaluable opportunities for feedback and ample time to implement necessary corrections. With a small group size capped at four, our coaches and physiotherapists can provide undivided attention, allowing you to ask questions and receive personalized guidance. Mastering proper running mechanics is pivotal in hitting your maximum velocity consistently, with minimal injury risk

Injury Prevention

A customised gym program designed to optimize strength and power gains not only enhances your athletic performance but also minimizes the risk of injury. By developing stronger muscles, tendons, bones, and ligaments, your body becomes more resilient against injuries. The inclusion of high-intensity stimuli that replicates game scenarios increases your body's adaptability, further reducing risk of injury. With a carefully graded loading program of both gym and field sessions, your susceptibility to overuse injuries is reduced.
