What is Off Season Physical Performance Coaching in Portugal?
The Campus in Quinta do Lago and Game Changer Performance have partnered together to deliver off-season programmes for players.
Programmes are aimed at developing players physical performance ready for the start of pre-season.
A chance for players to access some of the best performance facilities in Europe and work with an experienced team of specialists from GCP.
How do we do it?
Pitch-based conditioning will be aimed at developing speed and endurance qualities to ensure players starting pre-season can thrive in training drills delivered by their clubs, in addition to minimising the risk of a non-contact injury.
Speed and agility training will be provided to work on technique and players will be given education on drills they can use to aid performance in a game.
Hydrotherapy sessions & massages will offer players the opportunity to recover from the dayʼs work on the camps, allowing for a greater opportunity for maximal performance during subsequent sessions.
Load monitoring, GPS analysis and reporting of sessions throughout the programme will be provided to players and clubs.
Soft tissue sessions pre and post sessions each day and Sports nutrition supplements provided for each session
GCP team will also liaise with medical & performance departments to deliver club led protocols plus reports for clubs on each days sessions.

Working with Alex and the team at GCP this pre-season put me in the best shape possible ahead of the new season. The programme that GCP delivered for me was exactly what I needed and I look forward to working with them again.

I attended the performance psychology section with 20 other business founders and found it very useful in understanding myself and what I can do to improve my personal performance within my team. I went further to invite the GCP team into conducting the same session with my staff. Overall I wanted my team to improve their individual and team performance by understanding each other’s mindset and gain an appreciation of each other’s approach. This was well-received by all staff beyond what I or my management team could achieve. Getting an external organisation truly added value as the session was not treated as a company requirement but a more personal approach to development. I strongly recommend any business that wants to develop a high-performance team to attend this course. The preparation, delivery and execution is great.
