WorkRate ESPP 26 NYC
New York City
Elite Soccer Performance Program
A structured offseason football development system for serious players in New York City.
The Story
ESPP was built to keep serious footballers engaged, fit, and progressing throughout the offseason. After successful implementations in Tampa from 2022–2024, WorkRate now brings the system to New York City with a more advanced, wearable-integrated approach to football development.
Built around movement quality, conditioning, physiological testing, and objective player tracking, ESPP helps identify limiting factors while building long-term player profiles directly connected to football performance.

Why Build a Player Profile?
A profile creates an objective snapshot of the athlete — helping identify limiting factors in movement, conditioning, and running ability while tracking development over time. The goal is simple: build a clearer understanding of the player’s physical capacities and how they translate into football performance.
Football development is more than technical and tactical ability. Physical qualities such as movement efficiency, conditioning, speed, fatigue management, and physical preparedness directly influence performance and long-term progression within the game.
After You Register – What Happens Next

No health questionnaire, no training.
Athlete safety is our top priority. The onboarding health questionnaire helps us identify potential risks before participation and ensures athletes are training in the safest and most appropriate environment possible.
All required onboarding forms must be completed before attending sessions. WorkRate reserves the right to refuse participation or service if safety requirements are not met.
