What is Player Ready?

An athlete and coach optimisation program designed to build complete performers — in and out of the game.

Player Ready is a signature program by Peak Preparation that arms athletes and coaches with the tools, strategies, and mindset to perform at their best — consistently, confidently, and sustainably.

It’s not just about technical skill or fitness. It’s about developing the habits, behaviours, and thinking that underpin long-term success in high-performance sport.

Whether you’re preparing for the next big step or refining your current performance systems, Player Ready ensures you’re not just fit to play — you’re truly ready to perform.

Watch me introduce the Player Ready flagship program — a science-backed approach to helping athletes and coaches prepare smarter, perform stronger, and thrive under pressure.

Who It’s For

• Athletes who want to elevate their mindset, preparation, recovery, and overall performance.
• Coaches who want to lead more effectively, build strong team cultures, and better support their athletes.
• Teams & Organisations looking for a structured, science-backed approach to performance development.
  

What’s Inside the Program

Player Ready is modular, scalable, and built on the foundations of sport science, mental skills training, and elite-level preparation.

Core components include:

• Mindset & Mental Resilience – focus, composure, confidence, and coping under pressure
• Goal Setting & Behavioural Clarity – creating actionable pathways to long-term success
• Coach-Athlete Communication – giving and receiving feedback, building trust, and driving motivation
• Recovery, Sleep & Energy Systems – how to train smarter, not just harder
• Leadership & Identity – helping athletes and coaches understand who they are, and how they lead
• Team Dynamics & Role Clarity – connecting individual roles to collective success
  

Why It Works

Player Ready goes beyond the scoreboard. It helps athletes and coaches master the “off-ball” aspects of performance — the preparation, self-awareness, and decision-making that separates good from great.

Delivered through workshops, one-on-one coaching, and team sessions, Player Ready is customised to suit the level and needs of your group — from junior athletes through to elite programs.

Program Format & Outcomes

Delivery: Player Ready can be delivered in-person or online, as workshops, individual mentoring sessions, or team development programs.

Timeframe: Programs are flexible, typically ranging from a single 90-minute session to a multi-session series spread over several weeks, depending on your goals and schedule.

Modular and Scalable: The program is made up of distinct modules — each focusing on a key performance area (like mindset, recovery, or leadership). You can choose the modules most relevant to your team or athletes, or combine them into a full performance pathway. This means Player Ready works just as effectively for a single team workshop as it does for a long-term development program across multiple squads.

Resources Provided: Participants receive digital resources and reflection materials to support ongoing learning — including key takeaways, practical exercises, and templates to help apply concepts beyond the session.

Outcomes:

By the end of the program, participants will:

• Understand the key elements that drive consistent high performance.
• Build self-awareness and confidence to perform under pressure.
• Develop strategies for recovery, preparation, and mindset that translate into everyday habits.
• Strengthen communication, leadership, and team culture.
• Coach Optimisation Program Change main title from ‘Coaches’ to ‘Coach’
