Coach-led. Athlete-centred. Physically connected.

Athlete1st

Athlete1st works alongside the coaches, clubs and organisations already responsible for an athlete's sport. We first understand the athlete, their environment and the sporting objective. We then build the supporting physical-performance work around it.

We specialise in golf, but also support elite athletes and grassroots teams across a range of sports.

Start in the right place

Different people need different routes. We provide a range of distinct services tailored to differing needs.

Specialisms

Golf is the principal pathway. The same connected model supports high-performance athletes and the grassroots environments around them.

Athlete1st Golf

The golfer keeps their Golf coach and the coach keeps the technical relationship. Athlete1st provides the measurement, physical-development plan and feedback loop behind them.

High Performance Athletes

Elite, academy, national-level and professionally supported athletes may enquire directly. The athlete or parent begins with a Fit Call, and any paid work remains coach-connected.

For Athletes & Their Parents

Grassroots Sport

Leave It Better works with clubs, schools, parent-coaches and volunteers through practical education, workshops and programmes that reach many athletes at once.

Before we recommend anything

Why connection comes before prescription

Additional training is only useful when it supports the real sporting objective. Before we recommend ongoing work, we may speak with a coach, observe the athlete in their sporting environment or review the current programme and competitive schedule.
