Pre-season performance testing
Four tests for U12–U18 CRP and VJBL athletes: vertical jump, broad jump, 20 m sprint and the Yo-Yo test.
Warragul Basketball Association
Warriors High Performance Program.
Athletic development for every Warrior. For Future Warriors Academy, CRP & VJBL athletes, in partnership with Myers Sports Coaching.
Introducing
Better athletes, not just better basketballers.
The Warriors High Performance Program helps our athletes become better all-round athletes, not just better basketballers. It runs alongside the WBA Performance Pathway, from Future Warriors Academy through to our Country Representative Program and VJBL teams, and it's built and delivered with Myers Sports Coaching, WBA's official strength & conditioning provider.
Exclusive to Warriors athletes. The Program and its Warriors-only rates are open only to athletes enrolled in Future Warriors Academy or a Warriors program (CRP or VJBL).
The Program
What's included.
Six parts, one season. Testing and education first, then the option to train with MSC at Warriors-only rates.
Individual performance report
A personal report for every athlete tested, showing where they sit in their age group, what their results mean on court and in their other sports, and how to keep improving.
Pre-season education seminar
For athletes and parents: warm-ups (the Core Advantage Warm Up 2.0 used in Basketball Victoria pathway programs), cool-downs, nutrition, hydration, recovery, game-day preparation and tournament weekends.
Mid-season retest
The same four tests in February–March, run during team training, with a progress report so athletes can see how far they've come.
Free 15-minute results chat
Go through your athlete's report with Murray and talk about their goals and other sports.
Warriors-only access to MSC
Personal training, semi-private coaching, at-home and online programs, and Rep-Ready, at Warriors rates.

Complete the consent formTesting happens in the agreed session only. Athletes who miss it can be tested at the mid-season retest.
Why It Matters
More than basketball.
Athleticism is part of selection
Basketball Victoria Country's Future Development Program lists physical literacy (size, length, agility and coordination) in its selection framework. Pathway sessions use the Core Advantage Warm Up 2.0, the same warm-up our athletes learn through the Warriors.
It helps in every sport
Power, speed and repeat-effort fitness carry over to footy, cricket, netball, soccer and more. Kids who play more than one sport usually become better all-round athletes, and MSC plans training around an athlete's whole week.

When will we get our report?
[timing to be confirmed, e.g. within two weeks of testing]
