KEYS Athletic Development Program (Year 7) 

The KEYS Athletics Development Program was created, in essence, to ‘unlock’ athletic potential. Over the past 18 months we have had exceptional improvement in student’s strength and movement abilities. I can see the benefit of incorporating gymnastics, basic fundamental movement skills, running mechanics and mobility into the student’s program. The program is designed to improve your strength/speed/mobility and sporting performance as a whole. 

When: Monday and Thursday 7:00am – 7:45pm
Where: Green shed Hackney Road car park

Speed@Saints 

Most sports require short sprints inclusive of rapid acceleration. The more effective and conditioned you are at executing this, the more likely you will outrun an opponent or quickly chase down a ball. Apply this thought to your chosen sport/s. Join  Speed@Saints to boost your athletic ability and to support your overall performance.  

When: Sessions have commenced and are programmed for Tuesdays and Wednesdays 7am to 8am as well as Tuesday lunchtimes 12.40pm to 1.20 pm. Students are welcome to attend one or more sessions on a weekly basis.

Athletic Development Open Gym Sessions 

Some sports will have compulsory gym sessions already structured within their weekly schedule. If you child is not a part of a sport that has a current time slot, they have the opportunity to attend open gym sessions. They will have access to a structured session programmed by one of our full-time strength and conditioning coaches and coached by our experienced athletic development coaches.
