Nike Academy Physical Conditioning


You can get to know the Nike Academy players here. From Nike:
Being nifty on the ball means nothing unless you can match it with the physical capabilities to stay strong throughout the game. Thats why Performance Director Jon Goodman has stepped in to put the lads through their paces working on drills to increase endurance, improve reaction speed and boost athleticism.
The Academys recent match against Brighton & Hove Albion was an eye-opener and showed how fitness can make the decisive difference between victory and defeat. As the season moves forward, the opposition and challenges get tougher...
The team now must up the tempo and prove they have the right mix of technical, tactical and physical skills to take their game further.
Next up Nottingham Forest.
