Emerging Athlete Program

8-week training blocks, designed to help aspiring adolescents achieve their sporting goals. All our gym sessions are fully supervised, so you don't need to worry about what your child is doing in the gym. Take your athleticism and confidence to the next level.

Our Next Training Block Commences On 18th September 2023

Leading The Way On Youth Athlete Development in South Dublin

A Collaboration Between Buan Physio & First Class Fitness

How The Program Works

The primary focus of our Emerging Athlete Program is to develop resilient, strong and technically proficient young athletes.

 

We understand that Youth Development involves a long-term approach as the athlete moves through the growth and maturation phase of adolescence. Improving various athletic qualities via progressive structured training, is also known to reduce the relative risk of injury.

 

Our 8-week training blocks are designed to help aspiring adolescents achieve their sporting goals. Enjoy improving your athletic performance as you train alongside your peers in a purpose built strength & conditioning facility, First Class Fitness Gym in Blackrock.

 

Our next 8-week block commences on 18th September 2023. Gym sessions will run on Monday & Thursday mornings before school at 6.30am. Completing these gym sessions in the early morning will mean that your child is still able to attend their team sport trainings in the evenings.

The Benefits For Your Child

Increased Upper & Lower Body Strength

The ability to produce force underpins athletic performance. Increase your ability to produce force with our bi-weekly supervised gym sessions. 

Learn Fundamental Movement Patterns

We will teach you how to squat, hinge, jump & land. Progress to more challenging exercises by demonstrating technical competence.

Reduced Relative Risk of Injury

When you're injured, you're not playing. And when you're not playing, you aren't developing. Our program will help you to stay injury free.

Fully Supervised Training In A Safe Environment

Sleep well knowing that your child is training safely under the guidance of highly qualified coaches (i.e. Sports Physio, S&C Coach).

Enhanced Neuro-Muscular Control

Adolescence is a critical period for neural plasticity in the brain. It is therefore a vital period for learning how to organise & execute good movement.

Increase Your Confidence Levels

Train alongside your peers, pushing each other to improve in each session. Use your new found strength & control when performing on the pitch or court.
