WHAT IS A SPARQ RATING?
The SPARQ Rating is the first-ever system designed to measure sport-specific athleticism. Created to capture the key aspects of athleticism, these tests are combined and weighted in a unique proprietary formula.
While the conventional wisdom is that athletes are born ’fast’ or ’slow,’ science has proven conclusively that a training program focused on retraining muscle fibers and neurons to react more quickly and accurately can greatly increase an athlete’s speed, agility, and explosiveness.
The key value of the SPARQ Rating is that it provides athletes with an invaluable tool for staying motivated, measuring results, focusing training, and maximizing their success on the playing field.
What does the SPARQ rating test consist of?
Click Here for full details but the test consists of a One Step Vertical Jump, a 30 meter dash, a Compass Drill, an Overhead Power Ball Throw, and a 30 second Endurance Jump
Is Testing Required?
The club is allowing each coach to determine whether or not testing is expected so please contact your team manager and/or coach. Testing is highly recommended for High School students looking to play soccer in college as this rating may be used as part of the recruitment process.
