Shaping the Future of Youth Sports Through Science
We are on a mission to replace guesswork with science. At AntroPro, we believe every child deserves the opportunity to discover their true sporting potential in an environment that is safe, fair, and entirely data-driven.
Who We Are: The Minds Behind the Metrics
AntroPro wasn't built in a boardroom — it was forged on the pitch, in the laboratory, and through cutting-edge technology. We are a diverse collective of professionals united by a singular passion for youth sports.
We are united by a deep-rooted care for the future of sports. We know the science, we know the game, and we know how to bridge the gap between the two.

Combined 30+ years of coaching and competitive elite sport experience across youth development programmes.
Technology & Data Experts
Innovators who transform complex biological data into intuitive, actionable insights for everyday use.
Qualification
Expertise in predictive modelling, data security and building accessible consumer-grade health products.
Guidance grounded in research
AntroPro's methodology is overseen by an independent scientific advisor with a PhD in Exercise Physiology and peer-reviewed publications in paediatric anthropometry. Their role is to ensure that every model, from adult height prediction to PHV tracking, remains aligned with current, peer-reviewed research and established Long-Term Athlete Development (LTAD) frameworks.
Our advisor reviews the underlying algorithms, validates the data sources drawn from elite-athlete databases, and signs off on safeguarding thresholds so that coaches and parents can trust the insights we deliver.
Why We Created AntroPro: Born from a Need for Fairness
For too long, the youth sports system has been flawed by unconscious bias. We watched as talented, late-maturing children fell through the cracks due to the Relative Age Effect (RAE), while early developers were often pushed to the point of injury during their most vulnerable growth phases.
We realised that elite-level anthropometric testing was locked behind the closed doors of top-tier professional clubs. We created AntroPro to democratise this science. We wanted to build a tool that requires nothing more than a simple tape measure at home, yet delivers the robust, institutional-grade analytics required by modern academies.
Our Mission
Our mission is to make sports accessible, objective, and professional for every child, parent, and coach. We strive to ensure that the selection of a sport and a playing position is guided by foundational physiological data, mitigating the risks of early bias and protecting the physical well-being of young athletes as they grow.
Our Core Values
The principles that guide every decision we make.
Objective Fairness
We believe in a level playing field. Our algorithms are designed to look past birth dates and physical maturity, evaluating young athletes based on their true biological potential.
Uncompromising Safeguarding
The health of the child always comes first. By monitoring Peak Height Velocity (PHV), we empower coaches to adapt training loads, proactively reducing the risk of overuse injuries during critical growth spurts.
Scientific Integrity
We do not make guesses. Our methodology is rooted in rigorous research and aligns with established national youth development frameworks.
Universal Accessibility
Elite sports science shouldn't require expensive lab equipment. We design our technology to be user-friendly, putting powerful insights directly into the hands of parents and grassroots coaches.
Join the Movement
We are more than just a software platform; we are a step towards a healthier, smarter future for youth sports. Whether you are a parent guiding your child's athletic journey, or an academy director looking to optimise your talent pathway, we invite you to join us.
