What Does The Programme Involve?
Our Kaipara Academy programme runs year-round (in terms), in a small-group environment, under the supervision of our specialist youth coaches. Our dedicated coaches are well-versed on the processes of growth and maturation and understand that every young athlete develops at their own rate.
At Kaipara Academy, we provide personalised support to every athlete, tailored to their stage of development. We have designed a long-term athlete development programme that aims to maximise athletic potential, reduce injury and build self-confidence for sport and life.
Each weekly session places a strong emphasis on the development of mobility, strength, speed, and power. We consistently evaluate and monitor every athlete's growth rate, maturity status, and progress in strength and power, allowing us to make informed decisions about our programming.
We provide lifestyle education for athletes and parents, empowering them with the knowledge and strategies needed to support sustainable performance and long-term health.
We support athletes from all over Kerry and outside the county on a weekly basis from our elite facilities in Fitzgerald Stadium, Killarney and the Tralee Sports Complex.
