Youth Academy
The springboard for young riders looking to progress to our Inspire Talent Programme
Youth Academy is our custom coaching programme for younger riders aged 11 to 15 who are looking to progress onto our Inspire Talent Programme (ITP) for aspiring Pros in the future. The focus is on developing you to reach a high level in National Youth races and then placing you with a dedicated junior team.
The Youth Academy feeds directly into our ITP which in turn is used by many top U23 and Pro teams as a recruitment source for young talent. Youth Academy works because we know exactly what it takes to reach the top. Through the collective experience and expertise of our coaches, we will give you all the support and tools that you need to develop and progress. Youth Academy operates with a high degree of awareness of the needs of young riders, including a balance with school commitments and careful training load management.
The Youth Academy requires a high level of commitment from you as well as from us. For this reason, the minimum sign-up is one year, and entry is selective with prospective candidates undergoing fitness tests and an interview at our HQ near Lewes in East Sussex. If you are accepted, the results of the day’s testing are used to set-up your training plans. There is no silver bullet when it comes to making the grade as a top-level rider, and we carefully monitor your progress to see how you react to training and whether you have what it takes to go all the way.

What Our Clients Say
How Much Does The Youth Academy Cost?
£495 ASSESSMENT DAY FEE
As a pathway into the acclaimed trainSharp Inspire Talent Programme for aspiring Pros, our Youth Academy programme also requires similar commitment and talent and will not always be right for every young rider. Consequently, there are acceptance criteria for this programme, and we have an assessment day for applicants to make sure you have what it takes to succeed on this demanding programme and beyond.
As well as your registration and set-up with trainSharp, the Youth academy assessment day fee covers a full day at our trainSharp HQ near Lewes, East Sussex, where we will put you through your paces in a series of fitness tests with a sports scientist, followed by an in-depth interview with trainSharp head coach, Jon Sharples, to make sure Youth Academy really is the right programme for you.
If we think you have what it takes, we will create you your very own personalised roadmap and progressive coaching plan as a stepping-stone on your journey to being an aspiring Pro.
At trainSharp we don’t do one-size fits all coaching. Your goals become our goals, and we support you all the way. So … if you are serious about making it as a Pro – sign-up with us and start your development today!

How Much Does The Youth Academy Cost?
£495 ONE TIME SIGN UP FEE
This is a one time registration fee to cover the costs of the time that will be spent gathering all the in depth information about you and your goal, plus the construction of the year long progressive training cycles, a road map. As you know, there is a gap in your performance from between where you are today (starting point) and where you want to end up (the goal). So, why would you walk down a path if you don’t know where you was heading – we don’t deliver a one size fits all plan – our training plans are designed uniquely to fit you and your lifestyle and will get you the results you deserve!
After you have decided to join trainSharp and have paid this one time set up fee, trainSharp will contact you to arrange a virtual discovery call – the planning of your training begins!
This includes finding out about you and your goals, your training and racing history, fitness, and other lifestyle factors, so that we can match you with the right coaching package and the right coach for you, and also helping you setting you up with a trainSharp Today’s Plan Premium account and profile area.
If you are serious about your performance and making improvements, your goals will become our goals and we are passionate about helping you every step of the way – start your journey today!

How Coaching Works
Step 1
Detailed Consultation
We take time to understand your specific goals, your training history, any health/injury concerns, your lifestyle and your available training time. Using this information, we develop a personalised strategy.
Step 2
Establish a Baseline
We use a Physiological Assessment to determine your current level of fitness, your strengths and your weaknesses. This is used to draw a line in the sand and understand your potential, then used to establish your bespoke training zones.
Step 3
Training begins
Your personal coach will set you up in Today’s Plan and deliver your customised workouts, designed around your lifestyle. Then it’s over to you to put in the work, with your coach always on hand to provide support.
Step 4
Continuing Guidance
Support and feedback continue through email, phone and text as you build towards your goal(s). As you absorb the current training, it will continually progress and push you towards ultimate success.
Don't Train Hard, Train Smart
No matter who you are, what level, beginner or elite, your goals become our goals. If you are serious about your performance and making improvements then we will help you all the way, call us today to start the journey.
We guarantee you will go faster!
