USC YOUTH ACADEMY
ATHLETE EXPERIENCE
The two-week athlete experience · ages 11–16

Two weeks.
Six sessions.
One real athlete's block.

You don't have to be the fastest, strongest or sportiest kid to be an athlete. An athlete is any kid who decides to get better — and this is their two weeks to train like one.

Proper strength and conditioning coaching, performance properly tested, a team to belong to and a profile to take home — for every kid aged 11–16.

An experience for every kid

Two weeks training
like a real athlete.

This isn't only for the kids chasing a sport. It's for any kid who wants to get a bit stronger, faster or more confident — and learn what it actually takes to improve. Six coached sessions, led by our exercise scientists and run by multiple strength & conditioning coaches, with everyone screened into the right group. That's the whole idea behind the name: every kid gets the experience of a real athlete.

SESSION 01 · THE FOUNDATIONS

Learn the movements. Get screened.

Hinge, squat, push, jump — done right before we load them. Everyone gets screened into the right group so the fortnight fits them.

SESSIONS 03–05 · THE TRAINING

Power. Strength. Speed.

This is where the standard gets set. Three coached sessions on the physical qualities behind the numbers — and on the 1%: intent, effort, doing the little things right. We coach the belief that hard work beats talent when talent doesn't work hard, and the points here are earned on exactly that.

SESSION 06 · GAME DAY

Team vs team. Leaderboard. MVP.

The fortnight comes together in a round of team games. Effort points from Sessions 3–5 carry in, the leaderboard runs live, and prizes, an MVP and report cards get handed out.

The teams idea

A band. A team.
Battle on Game Day.

In Session 3 every athlete gets a coloured wristband and their team. From there they train and bank effort points together — then those teams go head to head on Game Day.

COACH'S FOCUS
Turn strength into speed

Riley's base is strong and his squat pattern is solid — the home program leans into jump and sprint work to turn that into on-field speed.

Who's running it

Meet Broden Pynt

HEAD OF THE YOUTH ACADEMY

Broden heads up USC's Youth Academy. His belief is simple: every kid deserves the chance to train like a real athlete. Learn the movement patterns properly, enjoy the process of doing it, and build strength, confidence and fitness all at once — no matter where they're starting from.

He’s big on the education side too — kids leave understanding the beliefs and values behind training, plus the basics of fuelling and recovery, not just how to lift.
