// What we test

Four things that win matches

See the full testing framework →
Athlete accelerating through timing gates
Speed

Acceleration & top speed

How quickly they get going over the first 10 metres, and how fast they can go.

Player making a sharp change of direction
Agility

Change of direction

How sharply they can turn without losing speed, the move that beats a defender.

Player braking hard during a deceleration test
Braking

Deceleration

How well they stop from full speed. Poor braking is one of the most common causes of injury.

Player reacting to a light signal
Reaction

Reaction time

How fast they spot a signal and move, the same skill as reading a loose ball.

// Why VLTIX exists
“My son was written off as slow. The timing gates said he was in the top few percent.”

After twenty years as a UEFA-licensed coach, I'd seen too many players judged on opinion. An unusual running style made my son look slow to the eye, until a proper sprint test showed the truth. VLTIX gives every player that same fair, objective chance.
