Athletic Development Assessment
Find the right starting point for your child
Every child develops at a different rate. Two children of the same age may require very different training programmes depending on their stage of growth, biological maturation and previous training experience.
Our free Athletic Development Assessment combines information about your child’s age, growth and training background to recommend the most appropriate MatchFit programme for their current stage of development.
Why complete the assessment?
Following completion, you’ll receive:
✓ An estimate of your child’s Peak Height Velocity (PHV)
✓ An understanding of their current stage of growth and maturation
✓ A personalised MatchFit programme recommendation
✓ Clear guidance on where to begin their athletic development journey
Why do we assess PHV?
Unlike many programmes that group children solely by chronological age, MatchFit also considers biological maturation.
Periods of rapid growth can influence coordination, movement quality, injury risk and the way young athletes respond to training. Understanding where your child sits within their growth journey helps us recommend the most appropriate training programme.

Important
The Programme Finder provides an evidence-informed recommendation based on the information you provide. It is intended to guide programme selection and should not be considered a medical assessment. If you’re unsure about the recommendation, we’re happy to help you choose the most appropriate starting point.
