Pro Football Supports Fitness Testing
During the past 10 years PFS has carried out the benchmark fitness testing protocol for the Premier League. The benchmark process works with all the Category 1 and Premier League football academies three times over the course of each season. Within the academies the age groups involved in the benchmark testing process are u12-u21 age groups.
During the past 14 years PFS has provided fitness testing support and strength & conditioning support to 35 out of the 44 Category 3 football club academies. The fitness testing process is undertaken 3 times a season across all u9-u18 age groups. All the fitness testing equipment is provided by PFS including the latest VALD deck technology. To certain clubs a much smaller testing process is also added on a 6 week basis. Individual reports and training plans are provided to coaches and players after testing.
