Unlocking Potential with the Emerging Players Programme (EPP) 🏏

We’re proud to be part of the Isle of Wight Cricket Emerging Players Programme for the second year running - a performance initiative designed to develop young cricketers through progressive, individualised training.

Each player has now completed our comprehensive screening and testing service to establish their athletic baseline and current stage of development. Over the next 6 months, we’ll be working closely with the players in the SPC Studio, focusing on performance development outside of cricket sessions and preparing them for long-term success in the game. πŸ“ˆ

πŸ”₯ From Injury to a 1:22 Half Marathon - Geoff’s SPC Story

A little while ago, Geoff visited us at the Sports Performance Centre looking to rebuild after an injury that kept him sidelined.

His goal? Add some structure, train smarter, and put himself back on the start line of the Benidorm Half Marathon, healthy and confident.

Geoff completed a full Lactate Threshold Test with us - one of the most valuable tools for endurance athletes. Using his blood lactate responses, we identified his true training zones, including his aerobic threshold, anaerobic threshold, with heart rate and pace ranges to aid in his maximising his training.

Before testing, like many runners, Geoff often ran too hard on easy days, didn’t recover enough, and trained purely off instinct. With his data in hand, he chatted with who designed a progressive, injury-conscious training plan that balanced intensity, recovery, and strength work.

Fast forward to race day…
πŸƒ Geoff ran 1:22,
πŸ₯‡ Won his V55 category,
πŸ’― And finished top 100 overall.

An incredible result and a huge testament to what structured, data-driven training can do - especially after injury.

At the Sports Performance Centre, we combine:
πŸ§ͺ Lactate testing
πŸ“ˆ VOβ‚‚ Max assessment
πŸ‹ VALD ForceDecks strength profiling
πŸŽ₯ MotionMetrix 3D running gait analysis

All designed to help athletes train smarter, avoid injury, and perform at their best.

If you’re ready to understand your zones, build structure, and unlock new levels of performance, get in touch - we’d love to help.
