For schools, academies and clubs

Training is only part of it.

The habits that decide whether young athletes thrive or quit are built between sessions. Sleep, fuelling, confidence, pressure, setbacks. The Athlete Place guides every athlete in your programme through all of it, taught by elite athletes and experts.

The gap

Most young athletes quit sport before age 18.

Not for lack of talent. For lack of guidance.

You and your coaches already know what decides an athlete's future happens away from the training ground. Finding the hours and the expertise to cover it, for a whole cohort, is the problem.

01

Mindset, fuelling, pressure, identity. It all matters, and none of it fits into a session plan.

You and your coaches already know what decides an athlete's future happens away from the training ground. Finding the hours and the expertise to cover it, for a whole cohort, is the problem.

01

Coaches can't cover everything

Mindset, fuelling, pressure, identity. It all matters, and none of it fits into a session plan.

02

Athletes struggle in silence

The things that push young people out of sport are the things they're least likely to say out loud.

03

Staff hours aren't growing

Wellbeing and safeguarding expectations rise every year. The timetable doesn't.

04

Parents want to help

Home shapes more performance than most sessions do, and parents rarely get any guidance.

How it gets delivered

Athlete development programmes, done for you.

A library on its own gets browsed, not completed. Every pathway is built from the guidance library above, ordered so it lands exactly when athletes need it.

Essentials

Learn the fundamentals of the sporting journey.

10Topics
~1 hrPer topic, with quiz & worksheet
10 hrs+Structured learning

    How it can be delivered

    Run it your way. However your week actually looks.

    Every topic is built in three parts, so it can be taught, set as homework, worked through one to one, or done independently. Most programmes end up using a mix, and it takes minimal planning from your staff.

    What one topic contains

    01 · Learn

    10 mins The lesson

    Written and filmed content with an elite athlete or expert. Short by design, so athletes finish it after training rather than abandoning it.

    02 · Check

    5 mins The quiz

    Confirms they have understood it, and gives your staff a record of who has engaged with what.

    03 · Apply

    30–45 mins The worksheet

    Printable reflection work that asks athletes to apply the topic to their own sport, their own season, their own situation.

    Per topic

    ~1 hour of structured learning, with minimal prep from your staff

    Six ways programmes actually run it

    These are the models our partner schools and academies use. Pick one, or move between them as the season allows.

    📚

    Classroom-led session

    Deliver the lesson as a group, in a tutor slot, PSHE period or squad meeting. Slides are provided, so there is nothing to write.

    🏠

    Quiz and worksheet as homework

    Teach it in the room, then set the quiz and worksheet to be completed at home. Learning continues without another timetable slot.

    🤝

    One-to-one mentor sessions

    Athletes complete the worksheet, then bring it to their mentor. Instantly gives every session a structure and a subject.

    Strong ROI for mentor programmes
    🏃

    Fully self-paced

    Release the pathway and let athletes work through it in their own time. Track completion without chasing anyone.

    🩹

    Injured or out of season

    An athlete who cannot train can still develop. Keeps them connected to the programme through the period they are most likely to drift.

    👥

    Parent workshops

    Run a session for parents using the matching parent content, or send the pathway home ahead of a parents' evening.

    Any order. Any mix. Minimal prep either way. Change the model mid-year without changing the content, the licence or the cost.

    See how it would run for you

    Think long term

    Set it up once.
    It runs year on year.

    Each September every athlete moves up to the next pathway and your new intake starts at the beginning. Nobody repeats content, joiners slot straight in at their year group, and the library keeps growing with new topics and interviews at no extra cost. Year one it saves your staff time. By year three it is simply how your programme works.
