'HELPING TALENT ACROSS THE GLOBE UNLEASH IT'S TRUE POTENTIAL'
WHY WE EXIST
We believe athletic talent deserves a service that is built for them. We have witnessed first hand the sacrifices talented athletes have to make to reach their full potential.

​
You are more than one size fits all. Your talent shouldn't lay dormant because you don't live near a high performance facility. Your support shouldn't be one dimensional or the brain child of a self-proclaimed 'Master Coach'. You deserve better. You deserve the MyPerform approach. Built upon decades of experience working at the pinnacle of high performance, with a true understanding of what it takes to help exciting potential reach remarkable performance.
Our Coaches Have Worked For
Marc Guehi, Crystal Palace FC
I worked with Jack & Sam over a period of 5 years whilst at Chelsea. They are two dedicated professionals of their craft as well as humble and caring individuals. During this time they really helped the physical side of my game but importantly they ensured I understood why I was doing this work which helped me when I went out on loan.
They also helped with my nutrition an area which has helped improve my game. They helped me build a strategy for match days and how to adjust my diet throughout the training week.
Tariq Lamptey, Brighton & Hove Albion FC
During my time at the academy, Jack and Sam took great care in getting to know me as an individual. They were able to support me in the gym and to help me make good nutritional choices, with a clear and achievable plan. I really enjoyed working with them as they are good people with all the right tools to help improve performance.
England Nets (Captain, 2019 World Cup)
I worked with Jack ahead of representing England at the Indoor Netball World Cup in South Africa. I had suffered with recurring ankle injuries so Jack designed a bespoke strength program before the tournament to help me prepare as well as improving my overall conditioning. We travelled across multiple time zones and played 16 games across 2 weeks. The detailed level of support around travel, fuelling and recovery between games was fundamental to my performance. I will certainly be using the team if competing internationally.
WHY INVEST IN OUR SUPPORT?
The purpose of our emerging athlete program is to create a support package that provides athletic talent with the best possible chance of succeeding in their sport. Our program is adaptable and personalized to ensure our young athletes maximise their athletic potential and don’t fall victim to ‘survival of the fittest'.

Laying down the right foundations at this stage is vitally important for setting an individual on their way to maximising their athletic potential. It’s an opportunity to build a broad movement base that sets an athlete up to be agile, robust individuals who can handle the chaotic and random movement demands of sport. Athletes need to be exposed to a variety of different movement skills, within a multitude of performance contexts and coached through different practice designs.
Variation is vitally important because it helps athletes become more agile movers and more adept at solving the variety of movement challenges their sport will inevitably throw at them. There is an intentional use of alternative sports to help teach young players how to move well. Multisport exposure helps to protect against the potential pitfalls of early specialisation which has been associated with reduced motor skill development and overuse injuries and adds more depth when teaching movement skills for their sport.
The teenage years are potentially the most challenging for the aspiring athlete to navigate. They will inevitably experience accelerated periods of growth. For some this can be incremental, for others the rate can be very high, which often has negative implications for both movement competency and injury risk. Athletes may mature early providing them with a physical advantage over their less mature peers, or late providing significant challenge to perform against physically superior opponents. It’s important everyone is sensitive to this information, providing late maturers with time and patience and early maturers with additional challenge.
As athletes begin to mature through this phase, if they display good movement qualities the program can gradually begin to increase time allocation to developing physical capacities (Strength, Power and Speed). Once athletes have moved past their most accelerated periods of growth we can expose them to an increased frequency of strength and power training and begin to increase intensity
