This camp is designed to develop your football-specific speed

Learn how to become a faster football player

We use state-of-the-art technology, including video analysis and laser equipment, to ensure we provide our athletes with the best training possible. The training is led by Carsten Effertz from Tanner Speed Academy, an expert in football-specific speed training with extensive experience. His exercises are designed to improve acceleration, agility, explosiveness, reaction time, and speed in directional changes – all essential skills in football.

With around 1,100 starting movements per match – both with and without rotational motion, linear or lateral, crossover runs, backward, diagonal, and sideways – there are many types of movements that must be thoroughly trained. Special emphasis is placed on the “first” step, with and without the ball, as this is often crucial to winning in football.

Speed is a key factor in football and depends on the ability to change direction quickly with fast, explosive, and reactive movements in tight spaces. This requires more than 50 rapid direction changes at maximum speed per match.

To ensure that each player receives personalized training, we analyze their running technique and provide individual tips and guidance for improvements that can help them become even faster. As part of this offering, each player will also receive the Tanner Speed Golden 8 – a valuable resource for continued training and development.

 

 

Tanner Speed is a recognized leader in speed training for football players. Carsten Effertz, who runs the concept, is based at Prioritet Serneke Arena in Gothenburg. He offers two different programs for athletes at various levels: Speed Day and Speed Advanced. Both programs focus on improving players’ speed, acceleration, agility, reaction time, and ability to change direction quickly and explosively – all essential for success in football.

Speed Day is an introductory program that provides athletes with a comprehensive introduction to the Tanner Speed method and the techniques used in football speed training. The program is suitable for all levels of football players, from beginners to more experienced athletes looking to improve their skills. During Speed Day, participants will gain access to state-of-the-art technology and tools used in football speed training and will learn from a coach with extensive experience and expertise. This program offers a solid foundation to build on and prepares athletes for the more advanced techniques and training provided in Speed Advanced.

Speed Advanced is an advanced training program tailored for football players who already have experience with the Tanner Speed method and want to take their training to the next level. This program challenges athletes at a higher intensity and gives them the opportunity to practice more advanced techniques and drills. It will push them both physically and mentally, helping them elevate their speed performance even further.

We recommend that football players interested in the Tanner Speed method start with Speed Day a few times before enrolling in Speed Advanced. This provides athletes with a thorough introduction to the methods and techniques used in football speed training and prepares them for the more advanced sessions offered in Speed Advanced. No matter which level of training you choose, Tanner Speed will help you improve your football-specific speed and reach your full potential on the pitch.
