The Play Performance Purpose
At Play Performance we specialise in all things sports performance. We love to see our athletes become the best version of themselves, and the enjoyment that comes from achieving success, whatever that might look like to them. Our purpose is to help athletes from all levels to achieve this success by providing them with the tools needed to accomplish their goals. Whether it be physical development to maximise performance, injury mitigation to be able to keep playing your sport without having to take time off, education in physical movement, building valuable habits and creating discipline, or mental resilience to cope with the pressures of competition, we can help you to grow as an athlete.
Play Performance is revolutionizing the sporting industry and helping to bridge the gap between amateur and professional sport in a private setting. We provide athletes at all levels an integration of High Performance structures such as athlete screening and performance testing, strength and conditioning, injury rehabilitation and athlete recovery protocols, that they would otherwise only ever have at a professional level (if that). It is through the integration of these systems that our athletes are better equipped for a long and successful career in sport.
We are so confident that our systems will prove beneficial for every athlete that comes through our door that we guarantee to improve your sports performance in the first 5-weeks of your new program or we will give you your money back!
Whatever the sport, whatever your goals, we can help you to get there!

The coaching, testing, and individual support helped me grow from strength to strength, and seeing progress week by week gave me real confidence. The team here genuinely care, they’re there for you 24/7, and the data, the facilities, the environment... it’s world-class.”

“Off-season training at Play Performance helped me target key weaknesses and turn them into strengths. The individualised coaching and tailored program gave me tools I’ve carried into preseason with Souths and brought me closer to my goal of playing first grade consistently.”

“The Coaches at Play Performance are exceptional. They really take the time to understand my specific goals and needs, tailoring workouts that push me but also respect my body’s limits. Their expertise goes beyond just sets and reps; they focus on proper form and technique, which has been crucial in preventing injuries and maximising my progress. I’ve never felt like just another number - they genuinely care about my development and are always there to offer guidance and support. Thanks to their personalised approach, I’ve seen significant improvements in my strength, endurance, and overall fitness.”

"As someone who hasn't always opted for training specific to my sport and just done regular gym, I've noticed a massive difference in my performance and strength. I love how there is always someone around to not just help you with your session, but the trainers all have such great knowledge about why we train the things we do, and have taught me a lot about how I can be the best athlete possible. I feel very comfortable at the gym and my testing results in just 5 weeks show that I have improved massively, and feel very motivated to keep improving."

Chat with one of our expert practitioners about your sport, current performance level, long-term goals, injury history, or current injury status. This conversation allows us to tailor our services to your specific needs and ensure the most effective support. You will then schedule your performance testing or initial injury assessment with us for Step 2.
For our Performance Program, you will come into the facility for sport specific performance testing using our state-of-the-art sport science testing equipment and methodologies trusted by the pro’s. We will measure your strength, speed, power, change of direction, fitness, and everything necessary for you to be the elite athlete you were made to be. This will allow us to identify your strengths, limitations, and areas to improve to maximise performance in your sport whilst mitigating injury risk.
For those coming into the Rehab Program, you will undergo an initial consultation with our sports physiotherapist and undergo an assessment to then formulate a rehabilitation plan to get you back to sport sooner and performing at your best.

The Science Behind Your Performance
At Play Performance, we don’t just guess your progress, we measure it. We utilize the same sports science methodologies used by the pro’s to track your athlete development, optimise your training phases, and guarantee a safe return from injury.
Force-Velocity Profiling: We go beyond the basic strength numbers you might usually see in the gym. By interpreting force-related metrics like Peak Force, Rate of Force Development (RFD) and identifying left-versus-right asymmetries, we pinpoint precise weaknesses before they turn into season-ending injuries.
Objective Return-to-Play Criteria: Transitioning from the treatment table to the field requires data, not just time. We use rigorous baseline and exit criteria testing to ensure a recovering area, like a strained calf or knee, has regained full strength and matches the healthy limbs output before you are cleared for competition.
Year-Round Periodization: Athletic training requires strategic timing, not just haphazard programming. Our testing protocols help you adapt to your sports calendar, allowing us to build raw capacity in the off-season and utilise data for fatigue monitoring during targeted in-season training so you peak exactly when you need to.
Comprehensive Athlete Dashboards: You receive more than just a workout program. We provide visual performance profiling reports and athlete comparison graphs with your onboarding and every 5 weeks, allowing you to track your strength, power, and speed metrics against your own baselines or sporting/age standards.

Athlete Performance Program
The Athlete Performance Program includes semi-private training sessions for athletes looking to improve their performance and build resilience to injury. This is delivered in small groups with a maximum of 4 athletes per elite coach to ensure that you receive all the coaching necessary to carry out your individualised program and achieve your goals. We welcome athletes of all ages, skill levels and sports!
Performance Testing
Sport specific performance testing can be done as a one off walk-in assessment for athletes, or included as part of their semi-private and private sessions. All athletes that come through our doors will run through a full performance profiling before their individualised programs are made. Subsequent testing is then carried out regularly to ensure success of the program and individual goals are met.

The facility includes a 3 person infrared sauna*, Normatec massage boots and multiple compression attachments*, Cold Plunge Pool*, and Hyperice massage guns.
