Football performance platform

Today's session is already on their phone.

Athena is built for semi-pro and non-league clubs. Your performance team writes the programme once. Every player gets it on their phone, logs every set, and checks in each morning, so your coaches know who is ready before anyone reaches the training ground.

  • Player app on iOS and Android
  • Coach on web and mobile
  • Logging works with no signal

Built for the level you play at

Semi-pro and non-league clubs, not Premier League budgets and not Premier League staffing.

Three surfaces, one database

The player app, the coach dashboard and the Athena control centre all read the same numbers.

One monthly subscription

Per club. Athena runs the platform, the support and the billing from its own control centre.

There are no club badges on this page. Athena is new, and the only badges that will ever appear here are the ones clubs put there themselves.

01  /  The player app

Nobody has to ask what today is.

A player opens Athena and the session is there. The exercises in order, a video for each one, the coaching note underneath, and the sets to hit. They log the weight and the reps as they go, not from memory in the car afterwards.

Today's session

The whole session in order, with the prescription on every set.

A video for every movement

The clip your staff chose, with the coaching note sitting under it.

Set-by-set logging

Weight and reps recorded as the set happens, then ticked off.

Works with no signal

A gym with no bars does not stop a session being logged. It syncs when the phone finds a network again.

A daily check-in under a minute

Sleep, fatigue, soreness on a body map, stress and motivation. It takes less than a minute and it produces a readiness score.

Match day, progress and bests

Match-day prep before a fixture, and personal bests a player can watch move.

Player home and the daily check-in. Real screens go here once the app build is signed off.

Three things it does without being asked

The work that happens between sessions.

Publish once

A programme goes out to every assigned player's phone the moment it is published. Nobody emails a spreadsheet.

Raised, not requested

Poor sleep, high fatigue, severe soreness or a reported injury raises an alert to the coach automatically. The coach does not have to go looking.

Signal optional

Sets logged in a basement gym are saved on the phone and sync themselves. The player never sees a failure.

02  /  Coach

Five questions, answered before you reach the pitch.

The coach dashboard is five cards. Each one answers a question a coach actually asks on a Tuesday night, and it answers it in seconds. Web at a desk, mobile at the training ground, same dashboard.

01

How is my squad?

Squad readiness at a glance, built from the check-ins your players filled in this morning rather than from a coach's impression at the weekend.

02

Are sessions being completed?

Completion across the squad, so a player quietly skipping the gym shows up in days, not months.

03

How is squad wellness?

Sleep, fatigue, soreness and stress across the group, and where the group is drifting.

04

Who is at risk?

The players an alert has been raised on, in front of you, ranked by what was reported.

05

When is the next match?

The next fixture and the days between here and it, so a heavy session lands in the right week.

And then the detail

Squad, player, alert, fixture.

Behind the five cards is the squad list, a profile for every player, the alert feed and the fixture calendar. A coach at a desk on a Sunday is not a lesser coach, so the web dashboard and the mobile one are the same dashboard.

03  /  Athena control centre

The half of the platform a club never has to see.

Clubs do not want to administer software. Athena runs the whole thing from an internal control centre, so what arrives at the club is a working programme and a coach who can read it.

Clubs
Every club on the platform, its squads, its coaches and its subscription, in one place.
Programmes
The programme builder your performance team writes in, versioned, with one published version visible to players at a time.
Exercises
The exercise library the programmes are built from: the movement, the video and the coaching note.
Engagement
Which clubs are using it and which have gone quiet, so a problem is spotted before it becomes a cancellation.
Support
Messages, tasks and an activity log, so nothing a club asked for gets lost in somebody's inbox.

How it works

Written centrally. Delivered individually.

01

Your programme gets written

Athena's performance team builds the block in the programme builder: the weeks, the sessions, the exercises and the prescription on every set.

02

It lands on every phone

Publish it and it expands into a session for each assigned player, on their phone, the same moment. Edit it mid-block and only the sessions still ahead of them change.

03

Your coaches see what came back

Sets logged, check-ins submitted, readiness scored and alerts raised. All of it is on the coach dashboard before the next session starts.

The point of all of it

Elite performance. Simple experience.

Everything above exists so that a player at your club can walk into a gym, open one app, and train the way a full-time professional would.

Who is behind it

Three founders.

Athena is built by three founders working across performance, product and clubs. Photographs and names go on this page before launch.

Performance

Writes the programmes and sets what a readiness score is allowed to mean.

Product and engineering

Builds the app, the dashboard and the control centre, and keeps them on one database.

Clubs and partnerships

Talks to the clubs, runs onboarding, and answers the phone when a coach needs something.
