LET PERFORMANCE SPEAK.

Talent exists everywhere. Opportunity does not. Many athletes never receive the same exposure, evaluation, resources, or connections as others.


NLSA CHALLENGE™ is designed to provide athletes with another way to establish what they can do through standardized performance testing and verified results.


THE STANDARD DOESN'T KNOW YOUR NAME. IT MEASURES WHAT YOU DO.

MEASURE WHAT MATTERS.

NLSA Challenge™ performance testing may evaluate areas such as:

SPEED

How quickly you perform.

AGILITY

How effectively you change direction and control movement.

POWER

Your ability to produce explosive athletic movement.

STRENGTH

Applicable measures of athletic strength.

ENDURANCE

Your ability to sustain performance.

SPORT-SPECIFIC SKILLS

Applicable skills connected to your sport.

Testing standards and specific events may vary by sport, division and NLSA Challenge™ event.

DON'T JUST RECORD YOUR PERFORMANCE. CERTIFY IT.

NLSA USA Athlete Performance Certification is designed to document achievement through standardized testing and verified measurements.


Certification is based on performance — not reputation.

CERTIFICATIONS ARE EARNED. YOU CAN PAY TO TAKE THE TEST.
YOU CANNOT PAY TO PASS IT.


Applicable certification levels may recognize athletes as they progress through NLSA USA performance standards. Athletes can use future testing opportunities to measure improvement and build a performance history over time.
