Part of a national high-performance network
Elite Training Centres play a critical role in the UK’s sporting success, creating environments where athletes, coaches and practitioners can collaborate, innovate and perform.
To achieve accreditation, centres must demonstrate excellence across facilities, people, partnerships and athlete support, alongside a clear commitment to continuous improvement — ensuring the UK remains at the forefront of Olympic and Paralympic sport.
