Join schools, sports clubs and organisations across New Zealand delivering the Athlete Adaptability Programme to their young athletes.
Get in Touch Learn About the ProgrammeWhat Your Organisation Gains
Partnering with Just A Game gives your athletes, practitioners and organisation something that's genuinely difficult to build alone.
Evidence-Based Programme
The AAP is grounded in ecological dynamics and constraints-led coaching science — not trends or opinion. You get a programme with a clear theoretical foundation and measurable outcomes.
Digital Portal & Reporting
Every athlete on your programme has their own portal profile. You get group-level reporting that's ready to share with parents, boards and funders — at any time.
Flexible Delivery Models
Choose self-delivery with JAG training and support, or bring in JAG practitioners directly. The model adapts to what works for your organisation right now.
Measurable Athlete Outcomes
Every session produces data. Every data point tells part of an athlete's story. You'll have real evidence of athlete development — not just anecdote.
Practitioner Development
Your staff gain knowledge and confidence in constraints-led, athlete-centred practice — building capability inside your organisation that outlasts any single programme.
Sport NZ Aligned
The programme is designed to complement Sport NZ's Long-Term Athlete Development framework — giving you confidence that it fits within existing sport development priorities.
Built for These Environments
The AAP is designed to work wherever young athletes develop — from classrooms to club fields to regional programmes.
Schools
Integrate the AAP into PE, sport teams or a dedicated sports academy. Build measurable, Sport NZ-aligned outcomes for every student athlete.
- Secondary school sports teams
- PE curriculum integration
- Sports academies and pathways
Sports Clubs
Give your club's participants a foundation that makes them better at every sport — building long-term value, not just early specialisation.
- Teams & squads
- Team In-Seaaon / Pre-Season programmes
RSOs & NSOs
Deploy the AAP at scale across multiple schools, clubs or regions. Build a consistent athlete development framework with the reporting to match.
- Regional sport organisations (RSOs)
- National sport bodies (NSOs)
