Tanner Speed Academy has officially started an exciting new collaboration with NK Tabor, a club with clear ambitions of earning promotion to the Slovenian First League.
Comprehensive Speed Testing and Individual Analysis
As part of the club's long-term performance strategy, Carsten Effertz recently visited the team to carry out the first stage of the project. During the visit, every player completed a comprehensive speed assessment, providing valuable insights into their acceleration mechanics, sprint technique, and overall movement efficiency.
The session was not only about testing. Players also received practical coaching on the field, learning key technical details that can immediately improve their sprint performance. Small adjustments in body position, foot placement, and force application can make a significant difference in football, where the majority of decisive actions happen over short distances.
The next step of the project is a detailed video analysis of every athlete. Each sprint will be carefully evaluated using Tanner Speed Academy's biomechanical approach to identify individual strengths and areas for improvement.
A Long-Term Speed Development Strategy
Following the analysis, the complete results will be presented to the coaching staff together with individual recommendations for every player. Based on these findings, Tanner Speed Academy will design a club-specific speed development program that will be integrated into NK Tabor's regular training schedule, ensuring that speed development becomes part of the team's daily football environment rather than a standalone activity.
This structured, data-driven approach allows coaches to monitor progress objectively while giving players the tools to become faster, more efficient, and better prepared for the demands of elite football.
We are proud to support NK Tabor on their journey and look forward to following the club's progress throughout the season.
Good luck to everyone at NK Tabor—we're excited to be part of the journey toward the Slovenian First League!
