Why UNCAPD?
At UNCAPD, we develop young athletes through structured, purposeful training that removes limitations and builds confidence over time. Our approach is centred on unlocking complete athlete performance and development—physically, mentally, and emotionally—so every athlete can progress with clarity and belief in their ability.
Our coaching blends evidence-based performance science with a supportive, high-energy environment. Athletes are taught how to move well, train with intention, and understand the why behind their development, not just the what.
Every session is designed with a clear objective. Every athlete is guided according to their stage of development. Progress is built through consistency, quality coaching, and appropriate progression—not rushed through unnecessary intensity.
The result is capable, confident athletes prepared not just for the next season, but for long-term success in sport and life.
Safe, Age-Appropriate Coaching
Coaching systems designed around growth, maturity, and wellbeing — ensuring athletes learn safely and confidently at every stage.
Multiple Locations
Regular, reliable training environments across Auckland and with further expansion plans, making long-term athletic development easier for families and athletes.
Programs for All Levels
Structured progressions that support every athlete — from foundations of movement to high-performance development.
Holistic Development Model
A complete development pathway that builds speed, strength, agility, mindset, nutrition habits, recovery strategies, resilience, and lasting confidence — supporting the athlete as a whole, not just their sport.

I have been training with Nick since I was 17, perfect for young aspiring athletes looking to develop and hit their ceiling. Nick helped me on my journey from being a young adult starting out at AUCC, to now my first year as a contracted professional for the Auckland Aces.
Angus Olliver - Athlete
Nick is an extremely knowledgeable coach who as the ability to evaluate athletes strengths & weaknesses to ensure his programs are tailored to the individual athlete. Nick has worked with some of my basketball athletes and has been able to help them with their foot speed, lateral quickness & explosiveness. Nick is able to connect well with athletes and create a sense of trust which allows Nick & the athletes to get more out of the relationship. I highly recommend Nick to any athletes looking to take their game to the next level!
