JSP Football Strength & Conditioning Programme

Our Football Strength & Conditioning Programme is designed to help young footballers develop the physical qualities they need to perform at their best on the pitch.

Every session is age-appropriate, carefully planned and delivered in small groups, allowing each player to receive individual coaching and support based on their age, ability and stage of development.

The programme focuses on the key physical attributes that underpin football performance, including strength, speed, acceleration, agility, balance, coordination, power and movement quality. Players will develop the physical foundations needed to become stronger in challenges, quicker over the first few metres, more explosive in their movements and more resilient as they progress through the game.

The programme combines the expertise of both JSP Academy founders. Steve brings over 400 senior appearances in non-league football up to Step 4 of the English football pyramid, while John brings more than 13 years of coaching, leadership and player development experience across grassroots and semi-professional football.

To ensure sessions reflect current best practice, the programme has also been developed alongside fully qualified Personal Trainers and Strength & Conditioning professionals.

Players will regularly complete performance assessments to monitor key areas of their physical development and help shape future sessions around their individual needs.

Our goal is simple: to help young footballers become stronger, faster, more explosive and more confident players, giving them the physical tools to perform, compete and progress on the pitch.
