Fitness Experience
Our fitness testing programme is based on the LCPE curriculum and PAP. Your students will enter the Sport Ireland National Indoor Arena and be treated as if they were athletes on a testing day. We will take your students through a range of physical tests, and at the end of the tour, they will receive an individualised report detailing their test scores and other information. Included in these reports will be comparisons to appropriate benchmarks for their age and gender.
Our Fitness experience teaches teenagers the key fundamentals of fitness! Our coaches tailor this experience to teach and test your students in a fun environment giving them the perfect starting point for their own fitness journey.
Tests include:
