What is the GymLive Performance Testing Competition?
The GymLive Performance Testing Competition transforms our standardised performance assessment into a live, branded, multi-provincial event. The primary objectives are to build brand awareness at scale, grow GymLive's player performance database, and create a credible pathway for player identification by clubs, academies, and scouts across Ireland and internationally.
This is not a single event—it is a recurring journey.
