Why We Do This

The same tech elite programs use, built for local clubs.

Most soft tissue injuries do not come out of nowhere. Asymmetries, weak single leg power and poor landing mechanics usually show up in the data long before they show up as a player limping off. VALD force plate testing picks that up in minutes per player, the same technology used by professional strength and conditioning staff. It works both ways too, the same numbers that flag risk also show your coaches exactly where to focus training to get players faster, stronger and more explosive. Our physios and exercise physiologists turn that data into a plain answer for your coaches, who needs managing now, who is good to go, and where the biggest performance gains are sitting.

"I couldn't be happier with the service. Ruby and Michael were exceptional, getting me back up cycling and running after a chronic patella issue. The curve ball of the injured hammie midway through recovery was handled without issue."

The Problem Every Coach Knows

You find out who's at risk after they're already injured.

  • Players carrying niggles that never get properly checked
  • Preventable soft tissue injuries sidelining your best players mid-season
  • No baseline data to know who's actually at risk before pre-season starts
  • Return-to-play calls made on gut feel instead of numbers
  • Finding out too late, in finals season, that a player wasn't right
  • No easy way to get the whole squad assessed at once

I couldn't be happier with the service. Ruby and Michael were exceptional, getting me back up cycling and running after a chronic patella issue. The curve ball of the injured hammie midway through recovery was handled without issue. Thanks guys.

My wife and I have both been going to Active Answers for many years now, not only for physiotherapy sessions but also for a long-term injury rehab program and their seniors strength and balance classes. I cannot do more than highly recommend both teams for their professionalism and expertise.

FAQ

Questions coaches and committees ask us.

Either works. We bring the VALD equipment onsite to your club, or your squad can come through our Seaforth clinic. Let us know what suits when you book.

Around 2 hours for a squad of 15 to 25 players. We'll confirm timing based on your exact squad size when you book.

We test junior, senior and academy level athletes. Let us know your squad's age range and we'll tailor the protocol accordingly.

Both. The same test that flags injury risk also gives your coaches power and asymmetry data useful for training load and selection decisions.

They're flagged clearly on the coach summary and get priority access to book a physio follow-up. Nothing happens without you or the player knowing first.

Yes, and we'd recommend it. Testing every pre-season builds a baseline for each player, so you can track change year on year, not just a single snapshot.
