The Programme
High-Performance Training
Accelerate your athletics development with smarter, high-performance coaching for young sprinters and middle-distance athletes in Wimbledon.
SpeedPro High-Performance
The SpeedPro High-Performance Programme gives athletes the coaching, structure, and support needed to co in a performance environment.
Open to athletes aged 11+, the programme provides a clear pathway that develops athletes step by step, from building fundamental skills to excelling at the elite level. Progression is defined by performance, not age, ensuring every athlete is training at the right level for their stage of development.
Our four pillars — Foundation, Development, Potential, and Performance — guide every stage of the athlete journey, creating a clear pathway from early foundations in athletics to competing with confidence at the highest level.

Pathway to Performance
A clear pathway for athletes aged 10+, designed to develop skills, confidence, and performance. SpeedPro High-Performance Training helps every athlete reach their next level.
Foundation
For athletes aged 11+ who are developing all-round skills through multiple sports. The focus is on building fundamental movement, fitness, and enjoyment while laying the groundwork for future athletic progress.

Potential
For athletes preparing to step into a high-performance environment. Training is tailored to meet higher demands, emphasising discipline, consistency, and competition readiness.
Performance

Whether you’re a parent looking for the right starting point for your athlete or an athlete ready to take the next step, SpeedPro provides the coaching and structure to help you succeed.
Programme Benefits
Athletes on the High-Performance Programme gain access to:
- SpeedPro’s experienced coaching team delivers weekly training sessions at Wimbledon Park.
- Online workouts to support progress away from the track.
- Tailored training plans to match the athlete’s stage and goals.
- Coaching clinics and workshops to build technical knowledge and confidence.

The Athlete Journey
Every athlete progresses differently — some may move quickly through the stages, others may spend longer developing the foundations. What matters is consistent progress.
Our goal is to support athletes on a clear pathway:
- Foundation → Development → Potential → Performance
At each stage, athletes gain the right balance of physical, technical, and mental skills to prepare for competition, manage the demands of sport, and enjoy the improvement process.

Questions? Answers.

Our main groups are for athletes aged 11+, with beginner and advanced squads available.

We’ll discuss which training group fits your athlete and send you full joining information, including costs and memberships.

Yes, the SpeedPro Coaching team members are all qualified UK Athletics coaches; more details on Coach Bjorn's Power of 10 profile.
