Player Performance Programmes focus first and foremost on the person. The development of the person, their values and their attitudes is a prelude to developing the player.
Players in performance programmes are required to have the motivation to engage and commitment to their personal development. The positive holistic development of the player contributes to the wider community as well as to the player the performer. This is central to our vision and mission. To give the variety of areas within this performance and lifestyle area, it’s imperative that stakeholders work together to deliver a joined-up programme for the player.
