Want this edge for your own team? The cognitive-motor system Sporting Kansas City adopted is A-Champs ROXProX — randomized light and sound training that builds perception, reaction and decision-making.
Sporting Kansas City’s main interest in the partnership is based around 2 areas:
- To add cognitive-motor training into their training and development programs. Superior cognitive-motor skills like Perception, Reaction, Decision Making, Adaptability and Concentration are the base for a player’s ability to read the game and to make the right decisions on the pitch. ROXPro’s training methodology is based on external stimulation with randomized light and sound signals and offers a unique and perfect way to replicate real game scenarios and to develop cognitive-motor skills;
- To provide players and coaches with crucial live data about the development and progress of each player, drill, rep, etc. at every single training session. Kansas City’s coaches and players will now be able to track strengths and weaknesses from specific skill sets to position specific training scenarios.
Bring pro-level cognitive-motor training to your sessions. The A-Champs ROXProX trains the perception, reaction and decision-making skills Sporting KC uses to read the game.
