Chasing the dream ⚽️ 🇺🇸

With a move to the States on the horizon, Maddie Hillyer is putting in the work to give herself the best possible start to the season.

Before beginning her 10-block performance programme, Maddie completed baseline testing to assess her current levels across speed, agility, power, fitness, and technical ability.

These results will help track progress throughout the programme as she prepares for the next chapter of her football journey.

A big season ahead - and the work starts now. 💪🔥

🎙️ U15 Middlesbrough FC Academy goalkeeper Jude Hetherington talks about his experience at The Extra Yard and the work that’s helping him develop his game.

Alongside the interview, you’ll see some of the goalkeeper-specific training we’ve been focusing on - improving footwork, reactions, handling, movement patterns and decision-making under pressure.

Great attitude from Jude and another strong session as he continues to build towards the season ahead. 👏⚽️🧤

COACHES TIP OF THE WEEK ⚡️

Change of direction isn’t just about speed - it’s about how efficiently you can decelerate, control your body position, and re-accelerate into the next movement.

This week’s tip focuses on staying low through the turn, creating strong angles, and producing force back into the ground to maximise your change of direction performance.

Master the basics, sharpen your movement, and watch the difference it makes on the pitch, court, or track.

Another quality session with Conan Newall from Morecambe FC ⚽️

Today’s focus was on developing explosive power, acceleration, balance, and reactive strength - key components for performing at a high level on the pitch. Every drill had a purpose, helping Conan build the physical foundations needed to stay sharp, powerful, and resilient throughout the season.

Great attitude and work rate throughout. Looking forward to seeing the progress continue 👊

🔥 COACHES DRILL OF THE WEEK 🔥

This week’s drill uses the Exer-Genie system to develop acceleration, power production, and sprint-specific strength.

The resistance challenges athletes to apply force efficiently through the ground while maintaining strong sprint mechanics, helping transfer strength directly into speed performance.

Simple setup. Maximum intent. Big results. 💨⚡

A solid session with Zach from Carlisle United this week as he continues to put the work in during the off-season. ⚽🔥

Today’s work focused on developing the physical qualities that transfer directly to matchday performance - acceleration, explosive power, change of direction, balance and reactive strength.

Consistent work behind the scenes is what drives progress. 📈
